This is a guideline for the assertion authors. Section 4.3.3 'Self
Describing Messages' in the Guidelines document makes a similar general
point: 'Policy assertions should not be used express the semantics of a
message' [1]. We agree that assertion authors should not define policy
assertions to represent information that is necessary to understand a
message. The Guidelines document is the natural residence for such
materials. The suggested guideline cannot be enforced by the attachment
draft. We suggest marking this issue as a Guidelines document issue.

The SAWSDL Working Group has reviewed the Web Services Policy 1.5 set of
specifications and has the following comments.

We assume that semantic annotations and policy attachments are
orthogonal
extensions to WSDL 2.0 (and 1.1) and when combined on the same WSDL
component , can be processed and interpreted independently.  You should
confirm that this is the case.

We recommend that the following statement be made in Web Services Policy
1.5  - Attachment to avoid possible future conflicts between SAWSDL and
the
WS-Policy specifications:  Policy Assertions on interfaces, (or WSDL 1.1
portTypes), operations and messages (the abstract WSDL descriptions)
SHOULD
NOT describe the formal semantics of messages or the action performed by
the operations.

Joel
