RE: WSA From

I guess I don't understand what the wsa:From EPR is then. What is the recipient supposed to do with this EPR (as opposed to ReplyTo or other WSA-defined EPRs)? What are these SLA properties really about in other words? If you have some EPR for which these SLAs are required, doesn't it make sense to define the semantics for EPR similarly to the way semantics are explicit for ReplyTo et al? As Conor noted, there are no defined semantics for wsa:From, and I guess I also don't see why this couldn't be simply a URI (extensible with anyAttribute).
