W3C Web Service Description WG: Requirements

Thank you all for your additional requirements, early feedback, and
clarification for the W3C Web Service Description Working Group (WG).
Please find attached an updated requirements draft with several changes.

First, it includes 17 new requirements. If you have any additional
requirements, the WG will be pleased to consider them on a case-by-case
basis.

Second, for the sake of process, I made an educated guess at the
priority of each requirement. Borrowing from RFC 2119, MUST requirements
are the highest priority, MAY are low, and SHOULD are somewhere in
between. (See the updated draft for specific language.) The WG will
begin discussing this prioritization at our next meeting. You'll note
that no requirement is yet marked MAY, though I expect that will change
soon. Your feedback on the relative priority of the requirements is most
welcome.

Thank you again for your input. I look forward to working with you all
to come up with a clear, focused requirements document that provides a
great foundation for the WG effort.
