Submission request to W3C (W3C Team Comment)


WS-MessageDelivery

We, W3C Members Oracle Corporation, Arjuna Technologies Limited, Cyclone Commerce, Inc., Enigmatec Corporation, Ltd., IONA Technologies, Nokia Corporation, SeeBeyond Technology Corporation, and Sun Microsystems Inc. hereby submit to the Consortium the following specification, comprising the following document(s) attached hereto:
  1. WS-MessageDelivery Version 1.0

which collectively are referred to as "the Submission". We request the Submission be known as the WS-MessageDelivery Submission.

Abstract

WS-MessageDelivery defines a mechanism to reference Web services (WSRef), essential abstract message delivery properties (AMDP), a SOAP binding for those properties, and the relationship of those properties to WSDL definitions and message exchange patterns. These properties enable SOAP messages to be transport independent - extending messaging capability to use separate transport protocol sessions or even using different transport protocols within the context of a message exchange pattern (MEP). Message delivery details are surfaced to the application layer, extending SOAP processors to use a wider range of message patterns and transport protocols to accomplish a Web Service interaction. The abstract message delivery properties include web service references, message identification and message references. This specification outlines in detail how to build message exchange patterns consistent with WSDL 1.1 or WSDL 2.0 using the definitions in the specification. The semantics and mapping for the Callback Pattern, a commonly used message exchange pattern as a composite pattern, is defined. The Web Service References (WSRef), Abstract Message Delivery Properties and a SOAP binding are designed for interoperability and extensibility.

Change control

Should any changes be required to the document, we would expect to create a new version and resubmit to W3C.
