(So I am for keeping it :) ) Point taken. What about the following (revised) text? The XML Protocol WG anticipates that mapping XP onto existing application layer protocols, such as SMTP, may lead to scalability and security problems, or even semantic complications (in particular when the application semantics defined by those protocols interfere with the semantics defined by XP). The WG may thus issue a warning accordingly. > Also, we don't know if people will want in the future to start another > binding (although it is quite unlikely). Isn't this is covered already by the revised DR 121 ? The XML Protocol WG recognizes that a number of XML messaging proposals use protocols other than HTTP, for example SMTP or BEEP. Although the WG encourages individuals and organisations to develop such bindings for XP, it will only provide a binding for HTTP initially. Or would you prefer to add the last sentence from DR 122 at the end of this text? , unless enough interest is shown by WG members to develop other bindings, and enough time is available for that work.
