Re: CR33: Describing RM using WSDL?

Alastair,
  section 3.7 of the RM spec says, or tries to say :-), that the service 
may use any appropriate
transport backchannel.  So, the response to your question is 'c'. The RM 
anon URI is just like
the WSA anon URI as long as the original connection's backchannle is 
available.  Once that
is lost, then the RM-ness kicks in an a MakeConnection is required.  It 
was very important, from
a performance perspective, to not require a MakeConnection if it wasn't 
necessary.
thanks,
-Doug
