Inconsistency with the valid source/target for wire element

[Raymond Feng <rfeng@us.ibm.com>]

Hi,

There is an inconsistency in the sca-assembly-1.1-spec-WD-03.pdf
about what are valid value of the @source/@target of the <wire>:

Line 1568:
The wire element has the following attributes:
• source (required) – names the source
component reference. Valid URI schemes are:
o <component-name>/<reference-name>
􀂃 where the source is a component
reference. The specification of the reference name is optional if the source
component only has one reference
• target (required) – names the target
component service. Valid URI schemes are
o <component-name>/<service-name>
􀂃 where the target is a service
of a component. The specification of the service name is optional if the
target component only has one service with a compatible interface

Line 4173:
SCA wires connect service references
to services.
Within a composite, valid wire sources
are component references and composite services. Valid wire targets are
component services and composite references.

IMO, composite services/references now
use the "promote" to connect to the promoted component services/references.
I assume we only allow component reference as the source and component
service as the target for <wire>. 

Is it a known issue? Can somebody clarify?

Thanks,
Raymond
