[Bug 11724] New: Fragment: delete on missing data

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=11724

           Summary: Fragment: delete on missing data
           Product: WS-Resource Access
           Version: PR
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Fragment
        AssignedTo: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org
        ReportedBy: dug@us.ibm.com
         QAContact: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org


Mode=Remove says:
- - - - - -
When the Mode attribute is set to a value of
"http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/ra/edcopies/ws-fra/Modes/Remove" the resource
representation referenced by the children of the Expression element MUST be
deleted from the resource representation. 
- - - - - -

This doesn't say what to do if the data is already missing.  We don't want
people to consider this an error condition.

Proposal:
reword it like this:

This Mode value indicates that the resource representation referenced by
the children of the Expression element MUST be deleted from the resource
representation.  If the fragment is absent, or if the Expression evaluates
to an empty fragment, then this operation MUST have no effect.
