Re: [soa-rm-ra] Version

I have problems reading last Ken's message (looks like it is not properly formatted)...

To Duane: 

just to confirm I understood you right - "Versions are usually only used for externally visible property changes" 

Can we consider EC as a property of Service Description ( and related Service Contracts)? In particular, can we consider communication and execution policies (i.e. EC), mentioned in the Service Description as properties? Can we consider RWE as a property?

If answers to ALL these questions are YES, I am fine. I just would like to prevent an interpretation of properties as only belong to service interface. 

To me, any changes in the public Service Description are the changes required the change in the Service version, i.e. its Service Description version.

Also, I would like to avoid anything which would benefit an approach where different elements of the Service/Service Description might be versioned separately and exposed in this way to the consumer. I hope, it is too low level of details for the RA.
