Vidur, As the creator of issue 41 [1] against the SOAP 1.2 specification, I can inform you that the XML Protocol WG [0] has decided to close the issue with the resolution described below. If this is not acceptable to you then please respond to this mail with a detailed description of your concerns and preferably what you see not being addressed as part of the resolution. RESOLUTION ---------- The following text is an extract from a proposal [2] produced by Stuart Williams as part of two longer threads [3][4] that you may want to look though for background. The WG adopted the resolution text with the understanding that it NOT be incorporated into the SOAP 1.2 spec as such although it of course is a permanent reference for the XML Protocol WG issues list [5]. SOAP 1.2 does not provide any normative means to carry the identity of the ultimate recipient within a SOAP envelope. SOAP 1.2 does provide a means to identify the roles that a SOAP header block is targetted to. SOAP 1.2 does not provide any normative means for the expression of a message path with a SOAP envelope. However, it does provide means for the development of SOAP extensions that provides for such expression within SOAP header blocks. [Work to define a message routing extension for SOAP may be the subject of future WG activity within the W3C.] Thank you, Henrik Frystyk Nielsen mailto:henrikn@microsoft.com [0] http://www.w3.org/2000/xp/Group/ [1] http://www.w3.org/2000/xp/Group/xmlp-issues.html#x41 [2] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-dist-app/2002Mar/0086.html [3] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-dist-app/2002Mar/thread.html#86 [4] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-dist-app/2002Mar/thread.html#67 [1] http://www.w3.org/2000/xp/Group/xmlp-issues.html
