Re: [wsrp] Spec defined events

[Subbu Allamaraju <subbu@bea.com>]

I agree that this is one of questions raised by WSRP users, but there 
are few issues to be considered here.

a. Most of the times, consumer users cannot act upon these events at 
production time. The only time these events make sense is during design 
time. At production time, such notifications just add more traffic.

b. We should also consider if such updates can be notified via a 
registry (e.g. via UDDI 3.0 notifications).
