Tony: There are two requirements regarding SOAP, but there is nothing
wrong with their use of SOAP terminology.  It imposes no responsibility
on us.  Just fixes, should be nothing XMLP needs to be concerned about.

5. Status reports and misc

-- Media types registrations, i.e. "application/soap+xml" and
"application/soap_xop+xml"
MarkN: No news.

-- XMLP/WSD Task Force and WSDL Media Type document, currently at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-media-types/2004Jan/0001.html
(Anish)

-- WG asked to review "Assigning Media Types to Binary Data in XML".
Comment summary from Anish, any other comments?
14 issues have been raised by WSD WG, 3 of which have been resolved.
We will send WSD WG the results of our discussion about these.
WSD WG will wait for this before submitting for publication as a WD.

Anish: Issue MT3 name "accepted media type".  Preferred "expected
media type".  Accepted unanimously.
MT6 was a bug in schema; expected media type should allow a list.
MT5: Thought this had to do with providing examples re contentType used
within complexType, but there is some confusion about this.  If this is
the case, then it is not a showstopper.

DavidF: Since we reference this document, would prefer it to be published
as a WD sooner, rather than later.  Will respond to Jonathan Marsh,
stating that XMLP WG finds no serious issue and recommends publication
as a WD.  Until it is published, we will have to continue referencing
the CVS version, which is a stable URL, modulo recent server downtime.

-- LC documents:
o MTOM
o XOP
o Representation header
Yves will make changes necessary to conform to publication requirements and
forward URLs to the WG.

-- Docs associated with LC:
o Attachment Feature
o Use Cases
o xop:Include FAQ
Yves will place latest EDs of Attachment Feature and Use Cases docs
into CVS, and also forward those URLs.

DavidF: When these near-final versions are made available, please perform
sanity checks.

-- Status of discussion with DOM WG
MarkN: Our intent was misunderstood.  It's ok if we subclass/profile DOM.
This has been done before.  Hoping DOM WG would take on this work.
DavidF: Hearing no further discussion, we can move past this issue.


6. Attachments
-- Issues:
o issue 467, http://www.w3.org/2000/xp/Group/xmlp-issues.html#x467, use
cases for Representation Header

Feedback from Michael Champion to xmlp-comments:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xmlp-comments/2004May/0003.html

MarcH also noted use case for allowing multiple references to the same
attachment:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xml-protocol-wg/2004May/0053.html

MichaelM: UC2 covers a high-level notion of what MichaelC describes.
UC6 covers Marc's concern.

MarcH: Think it would be useful to add clarification to the use cases
to clear up misconceptions.

MarkN: Wouldn't need to hold up LC if we classify this as an editorial,
not technical, issue.

Yves: Could insert this in the introduction after LC approval, during
final document preparation process.

DavidF: That involves waiting another week to agree on the text.
Would prefer not to put this off again.  If we can't do it in a few
minutes now, chair will contact Michael Champion to seek agreement to
consider it to be editorial.

Anish suggests adding a sentence to 2.1.

MarcH: Could also refer to UC2 & UC6.

MichaelM: Last sentence of this section summarizes UC2.  We could add
a similar statement for UC6, and finish with "See UC2 & UC6 for more
details".

Anish: Assume that text will be appended to first paragraph of Section
2.1.  Edit for better flow.

Proposed text (replacement for entire first paragraph of 2.1):
"The Representation header block is designed to allow applications to
carry a representation of a Web resource in a SOAP message. Applications
of this header include cases where the receiver has limited ability
to get the representation using other means, for example because of
access restrictions or because the overhead would be unacceptable. The
representation header is also required when multiple references to the
same extracted content are required but duplication of extracted content
is undesirable. See UC 2 and UC 6 for details."

Agreed to accept this text.  Issue 467 is closed.  Gudge will send
closing email.


7. SOAP 1.2 Recommendation maintenance
-- Issues and proposed resolutions

Yves is in the process of updating errata with Rec20 & Rec22 decisions.

dimension sizes, clarification requested".

This was split off from issue 11.
