RE: 8283 discussion

Ø  Is it fair to assume that the act of generating a fault will halt the processing of the request in who's context the fault was generated?

Yes, readers familiar with general fault semantics would conclude that the corresponding request failed when a fault is generated.

Do we need to say anything about what effect generating a fault has on the processing of requests? Is it fair to assume that the act of generating a fault will halt the processing of the request in who's context the fault was generated?

Pursuant to the action I took from last meeting, I suggest adding a definition [1] of  what "generate" means in the context of faults.

Thus, to resolve this issue, I suggest:

Include changes to fault definitions as proposed in the issue.

Add [1] to the compliance section.

Thanks.

[1] Add to the compliance section of all WS-RA specifications

The term "generate" in used relation to the various faults defined by this specification. This term implies that a fault is produced but does not necessarily imply that it is transmitted.
