Asir: Many thanks for sharing your thoughts on this issue.  And I attach

------Use Case of MODE in WS-E Delivery -----
 
Here is a  concrete use case where the  subscriber requests the event
source to push the  event  notifications through a proxy, obtained
either through an out-of-band channel (not specified in the Subscribe
request, e.g. the enterprise registers a special event notification
proxy with the service provider) or dynamically specified in the
Subscribe request. Certainly this behavior cannot be conveyed by the
wse:NotifyTo. This critical use case thus justifies the need for the
Mode attribute  in WS-E Delivery. 
 To indicate the use of an out-of-band proxy, the Subscribe request body
looks like this:

<wse:Subscribe>

            <wse:Delivery Mode="urn:push_thru_proxy" >

                        <wse:NotifyTo>...</wse:NotifyTo>

            </wse:Delivery>

</wse:Subscribe>

 To indicate the use of a dynamic proxy, the Subscribe request body
looks like this:

 <wse:Subscribe>

            <wse:Delivery Mode="urn:push_thru_proxy" >

                        <wse:Notifyto>...</wse:Notifyto>

                        <ext:Proxy>...</ext:Proxy>

            </wse:Delivery>

</wse:Subscribe>

"Mode=urn:push_thru_proxy" cannot be put into the Delivery extension.
This is because if the source cannot support "push_thru_proxy", it must
fault as defined by Mode in Delivery, and the subscriber expects a
standard wse:DeliveryModeRequestedUnavailable fault. And there is no
standard WS-E fault for items in the Delivery extension.

Last week, on the WG conference call, I mentioned that we will provide
some clarity on the concept of delivery mode (in WS-Eventing) and
related use cases.

Delivery mode [1] provides a subscriber with a mechanism to specify the
means by which an event is delivered. Delivery mode is represented as a
URI in a Subscribe message [2]. The semantics indicated by a delivery
mode are:


1)  Rules for the delivery of events

a)  Semantics and lifecycle of a Notification delivery

b)  Message Exchange Pattern used (One-way, Request-Response, etc.) and
how the delivery mode binds to those Message Exchange Patterns

c)  Format of a response (if any)

d)  Configuration parameters or context data (if any) to support the
Message Exchange Pattern

e)  Rules for the delivery or other disposition of faults generated
during a Notification delivery

2)  Delivery mode specific protocol information (if any) to guarantee
interop

3)  Supported delivery formats.

Some portion of the above semantics are captured by an EPR, in a
machine-readable form, but certainly not all. So, there is value added
by a formal mechanism to indicate a delivery mode.

The delivery mode is an extension point in WS-Eventing. The WS-Eventing
specification defines a single built-in delivery mode, Push Mode. Other
delivery modes may be important for external groups or other W3C Working
Groups and are delegated to those groups. This is similar to SOAP
Bindings. The W3C XML Protocol WG defined SOAP Protocol Binding
Framework as an extension point and a concrete binding, SOAP HTTP
Binding (is also identified using a URI [3]). Other groups defined SOAP
bindings such as SOAP-over-JMS and SOAP-over-UDP.

The DMTF WS-Management WG defined three new delivery modes [4] and these
delivery modes have been widely adopted.

Furthermore, based on the WS-RA WG charter [5], the WG deliverables need
to satisfy the following requirements as well:


1)  Charter scope - "Mechanisms to allow a subscriber to specify the
means by which an event is delivered and the definition of a push-based
delivery mode".

2)  Charter scope - "In order to avoid disrupting the interoperability
of existing implementations,
WS-MetadataExchange<http://www.w3.org/Submission/2008/SUBM-WS-MetadataEx
change-20080813/>,
WS-Transfer<http://www.w3.org/Submission/2006/SUBM-WS-Transfer-20060927/
>,
WS-Eventing<http://www.w3.org/Submission/2006/SUBM-WS-Eventing-20060315/
> and
WS-Enumeration<http://www.w3.org/Submission/2006/SUBM-WS-Enumeration-200
60315/> should remain compatible with protocols and formats that depend
on them, and offer a smooth migration path from the submission to the
standard." We are aware of two dependant protocols - DPWS [6] (uses Push
Mode) and WS-Management [4] (uses Push Mode and, as mentioned before,
defines three new delivery modes).

The concept of Mode is redundant in the current version of the
specification.

All events can be thought of as being delivered. There is no actual
definition

of "Push Mode" and no other recommended modes. We even have a
MakeConnection

strategy to allow clients behind NATs to fetch events. Likewise,
strategies for

complex queuing and distribution are supportable without adding
additional

modes and are outside the scope of this specification.



Proposal: Remove /s:Envelope/s:Body/*/wse:Delivery/@Mode from the
specification

and all references to Push Mode. A simple explanation of the delivery
idea and

a pointer to some of the techniques available will be needed.
