What's to stop me writing a binding spec that provides e.g. reliable request-response over an unreliable one way transport like UDP ? I.e. where the "binding layer provides certain functionality" like correlating requests and responses and adding reliability. I agree that the binding spec has to show how to carry SOAP messages in undelying PDUs but that is only part of the job. Am I missing something ?
