I took an action at the last F2F to raise an issue about absolute vs relative URIs in message addressing properties. The following message addressing properties are URIs: [destination], [action], [message id], [relationship/relatesto], [relationship/type]. In addition the message addressing properties [source endpoint], [reply endpoint] and [fault endpoint] each contain [address] properties that are also URIs. SOAP 1.2 describes a set of conventions for use of URIs in SOAP messages[1] and recommends (in the RFC 2119 sense) that "application-defined data carried within a SOAP envelope use the same mechanisms and guidelines". I think this applies to addressing headers. WS-Addressing should define which properties MUST be serialized in SOAP messages as absolute URIs and which may be relative and subject to the convention defined by SOAP. Note that this is somewhat related to issue 46 on the comparison of URIs[2]. Marc.
