Subject: RE: [uddi-spec] TN idea: link tags for UDDI
WSIL has several pieces. WSIL documents are separate XML files, which can be static or dynamically generated. Within a WSIL file, the location attribute in the wsiluddi binding is the URI of the UDDI SOAP inquiry API. So if you get the WSIL file, you can figure out to access the UDDI server. A WSIL file can be in a well-known path relative to the root of the web server (i.e., /inspection.wsil [1]). The WSIL spec also discusses how to use META tags within a home page to point to a WSIL file. e.g., <META name="serviceInspection" content="http://www.example.com/calculators.wsil"> [2] I proposed using <link> tags to point directly at the UDDI info rather than pointing to a WSIL file. It saves the round trip of retrieving the WSIL file. Its rather simple to support both the <link> tags I propose and WSIL.
