Subject: RE: [wsdm] What are we managing in MOWS: magic bullet solution


In the absense of the addressing standard the following could be a fix to #2 solution that makes it work like #3. However our preference would still be #4. We could go with the following as an interim solution until acceptable addressing standard is available to us. Then we would like to revisit this and insist on a simpler and more appropriate solution #4.

ManageableEndpointIdentification 
        binding[1] : xsd:Qname ... 
        address[1] : xsd:anyURI ... 
        description[1] : xsd:anyType - actual description document (WSDL) which contains the binding element and other associated information. The document MUST conform to WSDL 1.1. or 2.0 specification. It could contain WSDL imports and other elements allowed by WSDL. The document MUST contain the declaration of the binding component identified by the QName. This is not a location, this is the actual document that MUST be returned. The document is what the provider of manageability uses to describe the binding and all necessary related elements. The precise contents of this document is at the discretion of the implementer of this property/capability.

        version[0..1] : xsd:string ... 

ManageableEndpointConfiguration 
        descriptionDocumentLocations[0..n] : anyURI      

We want to let the TC know that we observe a very dangerous tendency among the member companies to overengineer the WSDM standard. We believe that this could lead to the standard being irrelevant to the wider community of users and not helping the intended interoperability goal.

Igor,

	Oracle is opposed to a solution that uses WS-Addressing given that it is not a standard and the IP status for the same is not well established. The wsdl:service approach you outline as an alternative is one that we would prefer.
