Interop testing has revealed an oddity in the sparql-protocol-query.wsdl file that we have in the WSDL 2.0 test suite. The WSDL and the schemas associated with it generally use the xs:import/@schemaLocation attribute to provide a hint as to where to fetch the schema. Some of our implementations leverage this facility to locate the schema components (as in the first xs:import below). However, in one instance (the second xs:import of sparql-protocol-query.wsdl), no schemaLocation is provided. <types> <!-- the SPARQL XML Results Format namespace --> <xs:import namespace="http://www.w3.org/2005/sparql-results#" schemaLocation="result2.xsd" /> <!-- the W3C XML Schema types for SPARQL Protocol --> <xs:import namespace="http://www.w3.org/2005/09/sparql-protocol-types/#" /> </types> The schemaLocation attribute is of course optional, and we could mandate additional mechanisms in our test framework to deal with it (e.g. add a catalog file). However the single omission looks more like a mistake to me than a deliberate design choice. Is the omission of schemaLocation deliberate? If all other factors are equal, would you consent to adding it?
