+    <head>MetadataExchange Assertion</head>
+
+    <p>
+     The mechanism for indicating that a binding or endpoint conforms to the
+     WS-MetadataExchange specification is through the use of the Web Services
+     Policy - Framework <bibref ref="wspolicy"/> and Web Services Policy -
+     Attachment <bibref ref="wspolicyattach"/> specifications.
+    </p>
+
+    <p>
+     This specification defines a policy assertion (wsmxp:MetadataExchange).  
+     The wsmxp:MetadataExchange policy assertion applies to the endpoint 
+     policy subject.
+    </p>
+
+    <p>
+     For WSDL 1.1, these assertions may be attached to wsdl11:port or
+     wsdl11:binding. For WSDL 2.0, they may be attached to wsdl20:endpoint or
+     wsdl20:binding. A policy expression containing the wsmxp:MetadataExchange
+     policy assertion MUST NOT be attached to a wsdl:portType or
+     wsdl20:interface.
+    </p>
+
+    <p>
+     The wsmxp:MetadataExchange policy assertion is a nested policy container
+     assertion. The meaning of this assertion, when present in a policy
+     alternative, is that WS-MetadataExchange is required to communicate with 
+     the subject. In order to indicate that the subject supports 
+     WS-MetadataExchange
+     but does not require its use, an additional policy alternative should
+     be provided which does not contain this assertion; the compact
+     authoring style for an optional policy assertion provided by WS-Policy
+     may be used. The wsp:Optional attribute, as a syntactic shortcut, can be
+     used with the wsmxp:MetadataExchange assertion. This indicates two policy
+     alternatives, one which contains the policy assertion, and another
+     which does not.
+    </p>
+
+    <p>
+     The inclusion of this assertion implies support for the WS-MetadataExchange
+     specification.
+    </p>
+
+    <p>
+     The normative outline of this assertion is:
+    </p>
+
+    <example>
+     <eg>&lt;wsmxp:MetadataExchange [wsp:Optional="<emph>xs:boolean</emph>"]? ...>
+  &lt;wsmxp:MetadataExchangeDialect ...>

+    operations are supported by that endpoint even though they do not

+    The WS-MetadataExchange WSDL can be annotated to indicate any endpoint
+    specific metadata that might be needed by clients interacting with
+    this service.  For example, the WSDL MAY have policy assertions that
+    indicate a particular security mechanism used to protect the

+<h3><a name="iddiv2_1_1418" id="iddiv2_1_1418"/>10.1 MetadataExchange Assertion</h3><p>
+     The mechanism for indicating that a binding or endpoint conforms to the
+     WS-MetadataExchange specification is through the use of the Web Services
+     Policy - Framework <a href="#wspolicy">[WS-Policy]</a> and Web Services Policy -
+     Attachment <a href="#">[wspolicyattach]</a> specifications.
+    </p><p>
+     This specification defines a policy assertion (wsmxp:MetadataExchange).  
+     The wsmxp:MetadataExchange policy assertion applies to the endpoint 
+     policy subject.
+    </p><p>
+     For WSDL 1.1, these assertions may be attached to wsdl11:port or
+     wsdl11:binding. For WSDL 2.0, they may be attached to wsdl20:endpoint or
+     wsdl20:binding. A policy expression containing the wsmxp:MetadataExchange
+     policy assertion MUST NOT be attached to a wsdl:portType or
+     wsdl20:interface.
+    </p><p>
+     The wsmxp:MetadataExchange policy assertion is a nested policy container
+     assertion. The meaning of this assertion, when present in a policy
+     alternative, is that WS-MetadataExchange is required to communicate with 
+     the subject. In order to indicate that the subject supports 
+     WS-MetadataExchange
+     but does not require its use, an additional policy alternative should
+     be provided which does not contain this assertion; the compact
+     authoring style for an optional policy assertion provided by WS-Policy
+     may be used. The wsp:Optional attribute, as a syntactic shortcut, can be
+     used with the wsmxp:MetadataExchange assertion. This indicates two policy
+     alternatives, one which contains the policy assertion, and another
+     which does not.
+    </p><p>
+     The inclusion of this assertion implies support for the WS-MetadataExchange
+     specification.
+    </p><p>
+     The normative outline of this assertion is:
+    </p><div class="exampleOuter"><div class="exampleInner"><pre>&lt;wsmxp:MetadataExchange [wsp:Optional="<em>xs:boolean</em>"]? ...&gt;
+  &lt;wsmxp:MetadataExchangeDialect ...&gt;
+    <em>xs:anyURI</em>
+  &lt;/wsmxp:MetadataExchangeDialect&gt; * 
+  &lt;wsmxp:MetadataContent ...&gt; <em>xs:anyURI</em> &lt;/wsmxp:MetadataContent&gt; *
+  ...
+&lt;/wsmxp:MetadataExchange&gt;</pre></div></div><p>
+     The following describes additional, normative constraints on the
+     outline listed above:
+    </p><dl><dt class="label"> /wsmxp:MetadataExchange </dt><dd><p>
+         This policy assertion specifies that WS-Exchange protocol MUST be 
+         used when communicating with this endpoint. This assertion has 
+         Endpoint Policy Subject.
+        </p></dd><dt class="label"> /wsmxp:MetadataExchange/wsmxp:MetadataExchangeDialect </dt><dd><p>
+         When present, this parameter indicates support for the specified 
+         MetadataExchange Dialect IRI.
+        </p></dd><dt class="label"> /wsmxp:MetadataExchange/wsmxp:MetadataContent </dt><dd><p>
+         When present, this parameter indicates support for the specified 
+         MetadataExchange content IRI for the MetadataExchange Dialect with 
+         which it is associated.
+        </p></dd></dl><p>
+     Note: Metadata resources use the corresponding policy assertions for the 
+     WS-Transfer operation that they support.
