Final Proposal for Issue 41

Hi all,

Below is the final proposal for closing issue 41.

<Issue_41>

The target (program, service or object) URI is not mentioned in any 
normative way in the SOAP envelope. While this does not conflict with the 
requirements, I believe it's an important (and possibly debatable) 
decision. This decision precludes sending an RPC invocation through an 
intermediary that uses different protocol bindings for sending and 
receiving XP messages. [1]

</Issue_41>



<Proposal>

Add the following text to (Part 1 Section 7: Use of URI in SOAP):

SOAP 1.2 does not provide any normative means to identify the target 
"program, service or object". 
However, it is the responsibility of the application designer to provide 
the appropriate target 
URIs at the appropriate points of the message path, or of a routing 
extension.

</Proposal>
