Re: issue 9087: a proposal

Would you expect that all resources handled by a particular service be homogeneous in encoding, for example?

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.
