Subject: RE: [ws-rx] NEW ISSUE: XML Namespace URIs
> I agree with date stamps in namespace uris. Minor versions almost > invariably don't guarantee backwards or forwards compatibility (like xml > 1.1 to xml 1.0). I think the fact that everyone pretty much accepts that the XML change should have been numbered 2.0 and not 1.1 is really an argument in favor of well-known major.minor semantics. As a pragmatic matter, it's a royal pain in the neck to do interop debugging using date-based URL's. Sitting there on the phone with someone reading dates "041113" vs "040113" is a real pain. Anyone who's worked on following various drafts of WS-Security and its errata will know -- been there, done that, don't wnat to do it again. /r$ -- Rich Salz Chief Security Architect DataPower Technology http://www.datapower.com XS40 XML Security Gateway http://www.datapower.com/products/xs40.html
