Section 2.7 Services states: "Ports within a service have the following relationship: * None of the ports communicate with each other (e.g. the output of one port is not the input of another)." This seems to be an unnecessary restriction. What is the justification for it. Some of the specs that are built on WSDL seem to already violate this rule. Example excerpt from the XLANG specification: <service name="StockQuoteProviderService"> <port name="pGetRequest" binding="tns:RequestReceivePortBinding"> <soap:address location="mailto:quote@example1.com"/> </port> <port name="pSendResponse" binding="tns:ResponseSendPortBinding"> <soap:address location="mailto:response@example2.com"/> </port> <xlang:behavior> <xlang:body> <xlang:sequence> <xlang:action operation="AskLastTradePrice" port="pGetRequest" activation="true"/> <xlang:action operation="SendLastTradePrice" port="pSendResponse"/> </xlang:sequence> </xlang:body> </xlang:behavior> </service> I would like to suggest that this restriction is removed.. Thanks, Prasad
