Description Doug Davis 2009-07-28 23:37:29 UTC
ws-eventing says:

All fault messages defined in this specification MUST be sent
according to the rules described in WS-Addressing section 4. They
are sent to the [fault endpoint], if present and valid. Otherwise
they are sent to the [reply endpoint] if present. If neither is
present faults may be sent to the [source endpoint].


This duplicates WS-Addressing, is technically wrong w.r.t the source endpoint
and we can't mandate that faults are sent - just transmitted.

Proposal:
Remove this paragraph.
Comment 1 Doug Davis 2009-07-28 23:44:29 UTC
actually, its worse, the next paragraph has this:

Endpoints compliant with this specification MUST include required message information headers on all fault messages. Fault messages are correlated as replies using the [relationship] property as defined in WS-Addressing. 

which should be removed too.

WS-Transfer uses this text:
All fault messages defined in this specification MUST be sent according to the rules and usage described in WS-Addressing 1.0 SOAP Binding  Section 6 for encoding SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2 faults.

which we could use if people really wanted to have something.

Either way, we should make all WSRA specs consistent with whatever we decide.
