Re: Action and scope (was: WS-Addr issues)

Agreed. I thought something in scope was open for *open* discussion, 
including the possibility of modification and/or removal. If there are 
things in the specification that we aren't allowed to talk about and/or 
change then can the proposers of the charter write them down so we can 
all see them now?

Mark.
