RE: regarding issue 3545

Why is it that the attribute extensibility is for ##other namespaces?
There's no UPA problems with ##any namespace for attributes.

 

Cheers,

Dave

Editors, 

Regarding the resolution for issue 3545 [1] which was assigned to the
editors to address this editorially, 
I dug up the text used by the OASIS WS-RX [2]. 

Elements and Attributes defined by this specification are referred to in
the text of this document using 
XPath 1.0 [XPATH 1.0] expressions. Extensibility points are referred to
using an extended version of this 
syntax: 
        * An element extensibility point is referred to using {any} in
place of the element name. This 
indicates that any element name can be used, from any namespace other
than the wsrm: 
namespace. 
        * An attribute extensibility point is referred to using @{any}
in place of the attribute name. This 
indicates that any attribute name can be used, from any namespace other
than the wsrm: 
namespace. 

Hope this helps. Feel free to use this text, or not as you see fit.
