Re: Proposal for WS-Policy assertions

Hi Marc, I have a few of questions:
1. Are these flags supposed to be proscriptive i.e. do we define behaviour 
if the server receives a response EPR which does not conform?
2. I assume the RM-Anon isn't supported/allowed if there is just a 
wsaw:AnonymousReplies?
3. I assume that, per the resolution of CR32, in the absence of 
wsaw:AnonymousReplies or wsaw:NonAnonymousReplies, the none-uri is 
supported (indeed logically is the only supported/allowed address to 
send)?
