Issue 458 closed

Noah,

You raised an issue, 458[1], regarding use of XML 1.1 in XOP/MTOM and
SOAP 1.2. The working group has closed this issue by stating;

a) that the infoset for a SOAP message may use any recommendation level
version of XML ( which at the time of writing encompasses XML 1.0 and
XML 1.1 ). 

b) that bindings may restrict themselves to a particular version ( or
versions ) of XML for serialization.

c) that the application/soap+xml media type ( and hence the SOAP 1.2
HTTP binding ) will be restricted to XML 1.0 serialization. only.

d) that the application/soap_xop+xml media type ( and hence the MTOM
binding ) is similarly restricted to XML 1.0 serialization.

I trust this resolves the issue to your satisfaction.
