Larry,

Thanks for your feedback[1] on the proposed text
to close issue #12[2]. The XML Protocol WG has
agreed to your "friendly" amendment to our proposed
note. As previously stated, the XML Protocol editors (copied)
will add this Note to the SOAP1.2 Part 2 specification[3]
in an appropriate place in the HTTP Binding section where
the HTTP response codes are addressed.

This action will formally close issue #12.

    Note: There may be elements in the HTTP infrastructure
    configured to modify HTTP response entity bodies for
    4xx and 5xx status code responses; for example, some
    existing HTTP origin servers have such a feature as
    a configuration option. This behavior may interfere with
    the use of 4xx and 5xx status code responses carrying SOAP
    fault messages in HTTP. It is recommended that such behavior
    is disabled for resources accepting SOAP/HTTP requests.
    If the rewriting behavior cannot be disabled, SOAP/HTTP
    cannot be used in such configurations.

Cheers,

Chris
