Re: Consolodated list of Alternatives A thru D to resolved WS ADDR LC comment

Hi,

A comment regarding alternatives A and B. Absence of an assertion 
implying prohibition is not supported by the WS-Policy framework. See 
issue 3602: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3602

This would be a domain-specific redefinition that introduces an 
undesirable special case.
