Subject: Re: [sca-bpel-editors] SCA BPEL Spec Editing - Working Draft 2


Hi Anish, the line numbers were turned off in the working draft 1. I am not
aware of a different template - please let me know if you have a link to an
"official" template.

I'll reduce the component/composite syntax snippets in sections 1 and 2 and
upload a working draft 3.

Kind Regards
DK

Dieter: is this something that you turned it off? I want to ensure that
we are using the right template.

... and yes we should always keep it turned on so that folks can refer
to them when raising issues/discussing them.

I think it would be. This is the problem that we have in the assembly
spec too. The same thing is repeated number of times => chance of
getting it wrong or being out of sync.

I would suggest using "..." for elements and attributes that are not new
(inherited from assembly/policy. This would get rid of the clutter and
focus the reader on BPEL-specific stuff, without being incorrect.

i.e.:

<component ...>

    <implementation.bpel process="xs:QName" />

    ...

</component>

Regardless, having <implementation.bpel> in bold would make sense.
