Re: Issue 189: closed

I am in agreement with the general direction signaled by this proposed 
resolution, but I think some of the details need clarification. 
Specifically, I think this question potentially arises both with respect 
to the envelope infoset, and with respect to XML serializations that might 
be sent by one or another binding.  The two are not completely 
independent, but I think that both need to be covered.  Specifically, I 
think that in the HTTP binding we need to describe any rules regarding the 
appearance of the XML declaration( <?xml  version=" " ?> in the HTTP 
entity body of messages prepared for transmission.  Would the correct rule 
be "MAY be sent, MUST be accepted"?

In the interest of moving forward, I would find it acceptable for you to 
close this issue immediately, and leave to the discretion of the editors 
the work needed to actually clarify the various parts of the 
specification.  Thank you very much.

Noah,

You raised an issue about what XML version number SOAP should
specify [1]. The WG will close this issue with the following
resolution:

<resolution>
Enchance the description of the Envelope encoding to include
discussion stating that the values of the [version], [character
encoding scheme] and [standalone] infoset properties are
unimportant as far as SOAP is concerned.
</resolution>

Please respond to this message, cc'eing xmlp-comments, if you
think this is an unacceptable resolution.

Thanks,

Jean-Jacques.
