questions on ws-e interop tests

Gil,

In your test scenario document [1], section 3.3 Duration Expiration
Test, the conformance clause states that:

Note that, because wse:Expires is sender-optional and support for
xs:duration is required,
there are no valid reasons for a conforming Event Source/Subscription
Manager
implementation to either be unable to implement this test or to fail to
meet one of the defined
success criteria.

However, the ws-e last call [2] section 4.1 says this:

If the event source does not support the wse:Expires element being
present in a Subscribe request message then a wse:ExpiresNotSupported
fault MUST be generated. 

According to this, it seems that an conforming event source can send
wse:ExpiresNotSupported to the subscriber in this test, but this fault
was not included in the test success criteria. Could you clarify this?

Thanks,
Li
