RE: [wsrf] ISSUE: Should resource lifetime require WS-Resource.

[Tim Banks <tim_banks@uk.ibm.com>]

All, (and particularly those not at the recent face-to-face)


A few subtle changes were made to terminology at the face-to-face which may
cause confusion.  Namely that according to the new WS Resource spec, a
WS-Resource MUST conform to WS-RP, but MAY conform to WS-RL.   So ,we can
draw a picture like the attached of the different kinds of Web services.

(See attached file: What is a  WS Resource.jpg)

Sam's issue asks whether Web services which implement WS-RL are also
required to implement WS-RP.  If not, they shouldn't be called WS
Resources, but we don't actually have a name to call them by. (Yet?)
