Since R085 involves messages that contain URIs, it is natural to allow
relative URIs. The recommended way to send relative URIs is XML Base [1].
XLink uses XML Base.
XML Base uses the xml:base attribute, e.g.:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<doc xml:base="http://example.org/today/"
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">
<head>
<title>Virtual Library</title>
</head>
<body>
<paragraph>See <link xlink:type="simple" xlink:href="new.xml">what's
new</link>!</paragraph>
<paragraph>Check out the hot picks of the day!</paragraph>
<olist xml:base="/hotpicks/">
<item>
<link xlink:type="simple" xlink:href="pick1.xml">Hot Pick
#1</link>
</item>
<item>
<link xlink:type="simple" xlink:href="pick2.xml">Hot Pick
#2</link>
</item>
<item>
<link xlink:type="simple" xlink:href="pick3.xml">Hot Pick
#3</link>
</item>
</olist>
</body>
</doc>
Do we need to do anything in WSDL to describe this or is this handled
somewhere else, e.g. in XSD or in the XML spec?
