Michael was kind enough to point me at his earlier mail which of  course
i now recall reading:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-async-tf/2005Feb/0065.html

I've also been wondering about the buckets being called 'one-way' and 'two-way'
maybe there are some better names for to be found, or maybe better explanation
is all that is required.

In my mind t's the provision of a back-channel and correlation for the duration 
of the MEP by the underlying protocol which is the distinction, rather than the 
ability for messages to travel in either direction within a single conversation
(connection).
