           Summary: MEX: clarity around @Content
           Product: WS-Resource Access
           Version: FPWD
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: MetadataExchange
        AssignedTo: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org

         QAContact: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org


Mex says:
[Body]/mex:GetMetadata/mex:Dialect@Content

    When this OPTIONAL attribute is present, the response MUST include only
Metadata Sections of this specified content form. If the specified content form
is not available then the response MUST include zero Metadata Sections of the
specified form for this URI/Identifier pair.

But its not clear what should happen if the URI is totally unknown.

Proposal:
Modify the text to indicate that unknown URIs result in zero metadata
sections too.

ex (new text in **):
If the specified content form is not available, **or not known**, then the
response MUST include zero Metadata Sections of the specified form for this
URI/Identifier pair.
