Stuart and I chatted about our action item regarding issue 146 [1] and I promised to send something out so here goes. Currently, the last paragraph in section 2.5 [2] says: "If the SOAP node is a SOAP intermediary, the SOAP message pattern and results of processing (e.g. no fault generated) MAY require that the SOAP message be sent further along the SOAP message path. Such relayed SOAP messages MUST contain all SOAP header blocks and the SOAP body blocks from the original SOAP message, in the original order, except that SOAP header blocks targeted at the SOAP intermediary MUST be removed (such SOAP blocks are removed regardless of whether they were processed or ignored). Additional SOAP header blocks MAY be inserted at any point in the SOAP message, and such inserted SOAP header blocks MAY be indistinguishable from one or more just removed (effectively leaving them in place, but emphasizing the need to reinterpret at each SOAP node along the SOAP message path.)" The suggested resolution to issue 146 is to add a paragraph like this: "A SOAP node that is acting in the role of the ultimate destination is responsible for processing all parts of the message intended for the anonymous actor including the body according to the rules described in this section." Note, the use of "anonymous actor" in order to follow the convention in section 2. Personally, I would prefer "default actor", though. The rules refer to the two points listed in section 2.5 [2].
