Some initial comments:

1. I cannot find a clear statement in these documents about whether or not
XMLP will define
a common behaviour in respect of at-most-once delivery, out-of-order
delivery, and message loss.

2. R604 says that the XMLP spec. must consider message paths over multiple
transport protocols.
Does the working group intend to consider transports which exhibit
re-delivery, out-of-order delivery,
and message loss?

3. The HTTP binding describes a state transition in the requesting SOAP
node from
'waiting' to 'requesting' in the case of a 3xx redirection response. Should
the state transition
diagram in MEP be updated to reflect this?
