Eric, Thanks for the update. There is one further update needed. The BizTalk row says "see SOAP" for facets. That is only partly accurate. In addition to SOAP facets, BTF2 adds reliable messaging under the "protocol" facet, and business process context under the "business process" facet. The addition of attachments does not seem to fit under any facet currently listed -- although there is a lot of discussion of this currently -- ebXML defines a similar approach to attachments. Perhaps we need a new facet: Packaging Construction of multi-document messages including non-XML documents as attachments. Usually includes mechanisms for constructing URI references to packaged documents.
