RE: [ebxml-msg] Multiple Acknowledgment elements with the sameactorURI?

[Monica Martin <mmartin@certivo.net>]

May wish to consider some real-world, potential instances of use of
multi-hop as discussed in last week's eBES ebXML Interoperability Pilot.
 
Thanks.

During the face to face, there was discussion of 

a) Fixing multi-hop, since there is a perception by vendors that it is
broken or not worthy of implementation. 
b) Removing multi-hop altogether, and possibly supporting it in the
future via our new modular MessageHeader if BPSS/CPPA indicate that we
need to provide this functionality. 

We should add a note to the applicable requirement pointing to this
email so that if (b) is followed, we can make sure the schema/spec
restricts the acknowledgment element.

Dave, it isn't a bulk acknowledgment message, this is to accomodate 
the potential need to have both a point-to-point and and-to-end 
acknowledgment carried in the header of the same message. 

I believe that you'll find the rules for this quite well defined and
constrained 
in the normative prose of the spec.

Hi all, 

Would anybody be able to confirm that it is the intention of the MSS 2.0

specification to allow multiple Acknowlegdment elements with the same 
actor URI on a single ebXML message?  (something of a 'bulk 
acknowledgment' message). 

The schema allows it, the 'interaction' rules allow it, although the 
spec wording always refers to Acknowledgment elements in a singular 
sense when discussing inclusion in a message. 


Thanks and Best Regards,
