WS-Addressing Status 2006-11-13

["Bob Freund-Hitachi" <bob.freund@hitachisoftware.com>]

There are two proposals in play at the moment that show promise of leading to a WS-Addressing CR33 resolution

They differ mainly as to the style of policy assertion (positive or negative) used to describe the forms of addresses that may be used in replies.

The group seems to be leaning toward a simpler WSDL marker that only declares that Addressing is required with the fine details being expressed as policy assertions.

Here are links to the proposals in the WS-Addressing public mailing list archive.

Although I for one think that these proposals are promising and gaining support, be clear that as yet there has not been a decision.

 

Thanks
