Subject: Re: [ws-caf] WS-Context potential bug - no explicit conformance statements


Title: Message
It was closed earlier this month. I believe the following text was added:
 
"One or more other specifications, such as (but not limited to) WS-CF may reference the WS-Context specification. The usage of the optional items in WS-Context is typically determined by the requirements of such as referencing specification."
 
but there was discussion (on the editor's mailing list and telecons) where it was thought that the specification already made clear that conformance issues there are. Your text goes a little further than we (the editors) thought necessary: a conformant implementation MUST support all mandatory items and MAY support any optional items.
 
However, a cursory glance at your text looks like a useful addition.
 
Mark.

Dear Mark,
 
Sorry, I forgot to check the bug list! - but the answer is definitely yes!
 
having now read bug 139 it appears to support my rationale for fixing, but to have been closed with out giving a rationale for closing without making any change to the specification (in the bugzilla text anyway as far as I can currently spot - I am sure that a rational has been given in some meeting or other).  Can you point me to the rationale for closing without fixing the specification?
 

Best Regards,

Tony

Tony, are you suggesting we should reopen http://services.arjuna.com/wscaf-issues/show_bug.cgi?id=139 with this as input?

Dear Colleagues,
 
In response (well partially, I was thinking of sending this in anyway!) to Martin's plea for us to look through the WS-Context specification for 'editorials' I would like to submit the attached on Conformance.  I guess this will be classed as a fairly major editorial.  I am sorry to have only got around recently to waking up to this aspect and doing something about it, but I have tried to provide fairly complete text for others to comment on and knock into shape.  My aim is to help produce a complete and rounded specification and I regard being clear on conformance as an important part of this.
 

Best Regards,

Tony
