Great.

Yes - an explicit description of how the 2 SOAP MEPs map to their WSDL 
MEP counterpart would be helpful, even if only described in cursory fashion 
here in part 2.

This must be rhetorical.

Text that explains the distinction between fault propagation and 
generation and how these relate to the processing model would be 
clarifying in this context, thanks.

Great.

OK
