Subject: RE: [ebxml-msg] Minutes 12/03/01 - Voting Meeting
OK, if we do this does it mean every message MUST now contain QOS/duplicateElimination? Regards, David. -----Original Message----- From: Dale Moberg [mailto:dmoberg@cyclonecommerce.com] Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 2:27 PM To: David Fischer; Christopher Ferris Cc: Martin W Sachs; Arvola Chan; ebXML Msg Subject: RE: [ebxml-msg] Minutes 12/03/01 - Voting Meeting David, When the CPA's AckRequested attribute has the value "perMessage," it has been agreed that (1) whatever the sender indicates in the message is to be honored and (2) no "Inconsistent" error check is needed. That means that if a sender includes the Header element requesting Acks, then the receiver is to return the Ack. If the sender omits the indication that an Ack is desired, act accordingly, and don't send the Ack. Don't change the semantics of "perMessage" please! We have struggled for some time to arrive at a way to enforce agreed upon values (using the CPA) and also to have an agreement that lets the Header values alone determine behavior. Why mess with this now? Dale PS: Also, as Arvola has indicated, the other two values that the CPA uses are now "always" and "never". For the AckRequested attribute, the "always" value means the receiver has agreed to always acknowledge what the sender sent, for the governing ServiceBinding and PartyIds. If the Header element requesting an Ack is ever missing, for that Service and PartyId, an error is thrown. The receiver just does not silently send the unrequested Ack. The "never" value means never ack it, and if a sender asks for an Ack, an error is thrown back; otherwise, it sends no Ack back, just as "asked." -----Original Message----- From: David Fischer [mailto:david@drummondgroup.com] Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 12:43 PM To: Christopher Ferris Cc: Martin W Sachs; Arvola Chan; ebXML Msg Subject: RE: [ebxml-msg] Minutes 12/03/01 - Voting Meeting Yes Chris, that's exactly what I said before. The absence of AckRequested implies *false*. IMO, AckRequested should only appear IF CPA says *perMessage*. Otherwise, AckRequested should not appear at all -- use the CPA.

Its absense implies that you don't want one.
