issue 9087: a proposal

For issue 9087 [1] what about modifying the definition of a resource to be 
the following (new text between the **'s):

- - - - - - - -
Resource:
A Web service that is addressable using an endpoint reference and can be 
represented by an XML Information Set. 
**
The resource's representation MUST representable by either zero or one 
Document Information items.  The following Information items MUST NOT 
appear as children anywhere within the Document Information item's 
children: Processing Instruction, Unexpanded Entity Reference, Document 
Type Declaration, Unparsed Entity and Notation.  The representation of the 
resource can be in any XML version supported by the resource manager, 
however, when transmitted within a SOAP Envelope the entire envelope 
(including the representation of the resource) MUST use the same XML 
version. 
**
The representation can be retrieved using the Get operation and can be 
manipulated using the Put and Delete operations. 
- - - - - - - -

Or if that makes the definition paragraph too long we can move the new 
text to be after the list of terms, right before the start of section 3.4
