[Issue 339-ml] Use of XKMS inside a SOAP 1.2 message

Hi Matt,

This is just a confirmation message for closing the decision cycle.

The comments you reported[1] were assigned issue id 339-ml.  The changes
you suggested were applied to the Editor's draft [2], with a slight
modification:

<quote>
[43] XKMS implementers shall use SOAP document style
request-response messaging with the XKMS messages defined in 
Part 1 carried as literal (not encoded) Body element content.
</quote>

I added (not encoded) as some people found "literal" ambiguous.

(And many thanks to Rich who made me see the light that unencoded
means not encoded and not uuencoded! Took me some time!)

Please reply to this message if you have any objections.
