SOAP 1.2 Attachment Feature has been superceded by MTOM.

| The Attachment Feature document has been superceded by the SOAP
| Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism document which describes
| attachment related features along with some implementation details.
(from "Status of this Document" of http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/NOTE-soap12-af-20040608/)

And current SwA Profile mention about MTOM as follows:

| This does not preclude using other techniques such as MTOM as appropriate.


> 3. Line 108, we should define MTOM.

We should add a reference to the W3C MTOM document.
