small problem with TX WSDLs

[Ian Robinson <ian_robinson@uk.ibm.com>]

We have a small snag.

Our 3 WSDLs at:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wscoor/2006/06/wstx-wscoor-1.1-wsdl-200701.wsdl
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wsat/2006/06/wstx-wsat-1.1-wsdl-200701.wsdl
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wsba/2006/06/wstx-wsba-1.1-wsdl-200701.wsdl

refer to the schema at the old location.
For example, the WS-AT WSDL contains:
           
<xs:import
           
    namespace="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wsat/2006/06"
           
    schemaLocation="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wsat/2006/06/wsat.xsd"/>

instead of
           
<xs:import
           
    namespace="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wsat/2006/06"
           
    schemaLocation="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wsat/2006/06/wstx-wsat-1.1-schema-200701.xsd"/>


This is a problem of consistency rather
than interoperability since the only difference between the schemas at
the 2 locations is the OASIS copyright statement comment, but it is a nuisance.
Having just noticed this, I will ask the OASIS staff the following 2 questions:
1. Can we replace the WSDLs at their
current URIs in the OOLibrray to fix this inconsistency in the schemaLocation
attributes on the xs:imports?
2. Regardless of the answer to Q1, would
we need a new committee specification ballot to approve such a change?
(The actual specs themselves would be unaffected by this change).

If the answer is (1) Yes, (2) No
then we can proceed with producing the OASIS membership ballot materials.
Otherwise we may want to consider fixing this first and re-approving the
committee specs (which actually require no changes).

We can use our regular TX meeting this week to discuss this.

Regards,
Ian Robinson
