Summary: editorial: conformance boilerplate
Product: WS-Resource Access
Version: PR
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: All
AssignedTo: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org
ReportedBy: gilbert.pilz@oracle.com
QAContact: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org
The "Conformance" section of all our specs has the following paragraph:
"For any message defined by this specification, any OPTIONAL elements or
attributes in the message MAY be used by senders of the message, however
receivers of those messages MUST understand those OPTIONAL elements and
attributes, unless other behavior is explicitly defined by this specification."
It's not clear that "MUST understand" means that the receiver must support the
OPTIONAL elements and attributes.
Proposal:
"For any message defined by this specification, any OPTIONAL elements or
attributes in the message MAY be used by senders of the message, however
receivers of those messages MUST support those OPTIONAL elements and
attributes, unless other behavior is explicitly defined by this specification."
