RE: Array Confusion

And to make matters worse, the soapbuilders group intentionally decided to
use the flawed WSDL example as a model for array definitions in their

important than correctness.

And it looks like the recent WSDL 1.2 : Bindings WD [1] propagates the
error.

You are not the first to note a certain lack of understanding of W3C XML
