Proposed issue text

Hi folks:

Here's a swipe at text for a WSA issue - I tried to make it general and
leave room for other (or sub-) issues, as discussed on the call last
week.  If we can get some agreement on this before the addressing call,
I'd like us to put it forth then.  What do you think?

------------------

Both the Async Task Force [1] and Microsoft [2] have introduced a series
of use cases which entail progressively more complex uses of
WS-Addressing in order to achieve successful communication using a
variety of message exchange patterns and levels of asynchrony.  At
present, these cases may theoretically be possible, but rely upon a
large amount of "out of spec" agreement.  In order to interoperably
enable these use cases, changes/additions are going to be necessary to
both SOAP and WSDL in order to a) clearly specify the desired runtime
behavior at all levels, and b) ensure that an interoperable description
technology exists in order to communicate the correct semantics.  Until
these needs are satisfied, the Addressing WG will not have accomplished
its work.
