[Bug 8204] New: MEX: metadata in an EPR is misleading

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=8204

           Summary: MEX: metadata in an EPR is misleading
           Product: WS-Resource Access
           Version: FPWD
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: MetadataExchange
        AssignedTo: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org
        ReportedBy: dug@us.ibm.com
         QAContact: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org


In section 7 where we define how mex goes into an EPR we have this outline:
<wsa:EndpointReference ...>
    <wsa:Address>xs:anyURI</wsa:Address>
    <wsa:ReferenceParameters> xs:any* lt;/wsa:ReferenceParameters> ?
    <wsa:Metadata>
        <mex:Metadata> xs:any* </mex:Metadata>?
        xs:any*
    </wsa:Metadata> ?
    xs:any*
</wsa:EndpointReference>

notice the xs:any* in the <mex:Metadata> element.
This is a bit misleading because its not really an xs:any under mex:Metadata.
I'd like to change it to use the form we use in 6.2:

  <mex:GetMetadataResponse>
    <mex:Metadata ...> ...  </mex:Metadata>
    xs:any*
  </mex:GetMetadataResponse>

Proposal:
modify:
        <mex:Metadata> xs:any* </mex:Metadata>?
to be:
        <mex:Metadata ...> ...  </mex:Metadata>?
