Here is the re-work of the proposal I sent, as per yesterday's telecon. The main changes are: * I've added a non-normative overview, and non-normative set of rules for senders and receivers (non-normative in the sense that they're implied by the normative material, but if I screwed up somewhere the normative material takes precedence). * I've removed any reference to the the "anonymous response channel" feature. Instead, this describes how to build any of the three MEPs on top of SOAP request-response. There is one MUST to the effect that if request-response is available it MUST be used, but this could be softened by defining some sort of marker to indicate whether or not it is to be used. I believe this addresses, attempts to clarify or obsoletes at least some of the questions that have been raised in the last day or so. So if you've brought up a question recently that I haven't answered, don't worry. I haven't forgotten you, but it may make more sense to re-ask any questions that still remain open after this go-round. However ... * Umit/Anish: There will only ever be one response coming back in the request-response MEP. It may be a reply, fault or acknowledgment, but it will always be exactly one of those. * Umit: The binding as a whole applies to the operation as a whole. For example, if the binding has SOAP/HTTP as its @transport attribute and SOAP/Email as a response binding, and I give an email [reply endpoint] and [fault endpoint], everything is still covered. We end up with o A SOAP/HTTP request for the /in/ message o A SOAP/HTTP acknowledgment. o An email as the /out /message. * what saves this from infinite regress is that the /out/ message is always one-way and doesn't require any binding other than the response binding. * Marc: Much if not of this proposal will work verbatim if "acknowledgment message" in what is now 2.1 is defined in a transport-specific way instead of as a SOAP message. I'm still not sure this is a good idea, but at least most of the other work is reusable.
