[wsbpel] Issue - 256 - Proposal for Vote

[Dieter Koenig1 <dieterkoenig@de.ibm.com>]

Revised and adopted resolution for 256: in the 2nd paragraph of 10.4. ...

(1) add the following after the first sentence (which defines "start
activities"):
----
If an <extensionActivity> child element is itself a start activity then it
MUST exhibit the behavior of receiving an inbound message. If an
<extensionActivity> child element is itself a start activity or contains a
start activity then the namespace of the <extensionActivity> child element
MUST be declared with mustUnderstand="yes".
----

(2) replace the "NO other ..." sentence with:
----
The only activities that are allowed to be performed prior to or
simultaneously with a "start activity" are scope, flow, sequence, empty, or
an extensionActivity with the following characteristics: the
<extensionActivity> child element MUST be a structured activity containing
the "start activity". This structured activity MUST be consistent with the
WS-BPEL process instantiation model, that is, it MUST not be a repeatable
activity or execute another activity before the start activity. For other
semantic constraints, see section "5.3. Language Extensibility".
----

Kind Regards
DK
