Eric's example[1] is a good one: one could want to include an MD5 sum of an XP message (or of a particular block) that every intermediary would check over an unreliable carrier protocol, and it would make sense to put it at the end. His point of not defining two structures with the similar semantics (two collection of blocks to be processed by an XP processor) allows trailers. Expressing this idea using a requirement is that the XML Protocol object model should be kept simple, which would go in section 4.2 Simplicity and Stability (3xx). 1. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-dist-app/2001Jan/0121.html -- Hugo Haas - W3C/MIT mailto:hugo@w3.org - http://www.w3.org/People/Hugo/ - tel:+1-617-452-2092
