RE: CR 29: proposed resolution

I concur with Amy's recommendation, save that I cannot countenance the use of "disrecommend" and urge replacing this neologism with "recommend against".

Subject: CR 29: proposed resolution




Per my action item, here is the suggested resolution for issue CR 029:

The issue notes that in section 5.7.2, where the association of SOAP MEPs and WSDL MEPs is first mentioned in the context of the SOAP 1.2 binding, the constraints placed on the binding of SOAP MEPs to WSDL MEPs is not mentioned.

A suggestion was made to effectively move the information from section 5.10.3, SOAP 1.2 Binding Rules.  I recommend that this *not* be done.

Rather, I recommend that we set an anchor for 5.10.3 bullet point 2 (SOAP MEP Selection) [1] and add a link ("see 5.10.3 SOAP 1.2 Binding Rules, SOAP MEP Selection, for constraints on binding") to the end of the problematic paragraph in 5.7.2.

Rationale: no matter where we put the information, we mention it somewhere else, unless we are willing to seriously restructure the SOAP Binding.  I strongly disrecommend doing so.  An alternative would be to duplicate the information.  Again, I actively oppose this resolution, as it raises too great a possibility of falling out of synch and into internal contradiction.  Consequently, the least-costly and most effective solution appears to be creating a link, which should indicate that the linked-to section contains constraints on the binding.

[1] Actually, I would recommend establishing anchors for each of these bullet points, so that they can be linked to; I believe that a similar issue exists with regard to HTTP Methods, for instance.  It may be better, in that case, to change the list into headings, instead.

Amy!
