------------------------------------------------------------------
8.  Issue #24 [.1] Real difference between literal vs. encoded? 
    Originally decided that @encodingStyle is a hint about how 
    types/schema was generated. Reopened by Macromedia\Tom at 
    telecon prior to 30 July 2003.  We haven't really discussed it
    since then.

  - Discuss the use cases not satisfied by the prior decision.

------------------------------------------------------------------
9.  Issue fault-name-uniqueness [.1]: Should faults be named with
QNames? 
    In WSDL 1.1 fault names are NCNames which are not unique within 
    portType even. This leads to a cumbersome mechanism to uniquely 
    identify a fault.
  - Discuss how faults are currently identified in WSDL 2.0 to see if
    this is still an issue, and if so what the solution space is.

==================================================================
Following items pending additional input:
------------------------------------------------------------------
10. Issue 85: HTTP binding options [.1]
    - option 1: drop HTTP binding
    - option 2: input becomes POST body and output is POST response
    - option 3: option 2 + GET goes to http:address URL and output is 
                GET response
    - option 4: option 3 + rules to move all parameters into query 
                parameters for GET binding with MEP=in-out and
                @style=rpc
    - option 5: option 4 + URL replacement (not just query params)
    Awaiting Philippe's action.

------------------------------------------------------------------
11. Schemas in imported WSDL (no issue number) [.1]
    - Seems to be agreement on the existing behavior as described by
    Gudge and Amy.  Still outstanding: do we add note along the lines
    of Glen's suggestion: put text in the spec to the effect that WSDL
    processors SHOULD make schema namespaces embedded in the <types> 
    sections of imported WSDLs available to their schema processors for
    xs:import where possible.

    Awaiting specese sample from Glen.

------------------------------------------------------------------
12. Proposal for combining the two attribute operation styles to one 
    (Jacek - no issue number) [.1]
    Deferred pending final disposition of attribute styles.

------------------------------------------------------------------
13. Issue 64 [.1] Operations an HTTP verbs (Mark Baker) [.2, .3, .4]
  - Jacek's synthesis [.5].
  - Awaiting description from Philippe showing how properties or
    extensions can be used to annotate the WSDL with RESTful 
    properties.  Ask Mark for a definitive list of those properties 
    so we can consider how to associate them with property URIs or 
    namespaces.
  - Marking WSDL operations as "safe" (DaveO/TAG) [.6, .7]
