However, the Dialect elemet is required in order to specify the Content attribute (which indicates that the returned metadata should be inlined). There are a number of ways we could fix this: Proposal 1 ---------- Move the Content attribute to the GetMetadata This places the restriction that you can only specify one content type for all metadata. Proposal 2 ---------- Allow the Content attribute on GetMetadata only when no dialects are specified. Proposal 3 ---------- Allow the Content attribute on GetMetadata. When Content Attributes also appear on the Dialect, they override (i.e. the one on the GetMetadata is the default). 43124 1 katy_warr 2010-12-07 09:36:30 +0000 Proposed resolution here: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-resource-access/2010Nov/0022.html
