    <thetext>Section 6.1 of WS-MEX says ...

&quot;... The metadata associated with a service endpoint may be available as multiple metadata resources. As a result, the metadata returned by the Get request to a metadata resource&apos;s endpoint may be limited to a particular metadata type (@Dialect) and identifier (@Identifier).

The representation of a metadata resource MAY be a mex:Metadata element or any other document format (e.g. [XML Schema: Structures], [XML Schema: Datatypes], [WSDL 1.1], [WS-Policy]) for which a mex:MetadataSection/@Dialect has been defined.&quot;

I don&apos;t understand what this says.  Why don&apos;t we say, instead &quot;A WS-Transfer GET on a EPR returns the metadata element (child) of the EPR?&quot;</thetext>

    <thetext>Accepted as proposed in comment #3 amended through the deletio of the following sentence:
&quot;The representation of a metadata resource MAY also be any other document format (e.g. [XML Schema: Structures], [XML Schema: Datatypes], [WSDL 1.1], [WS-Policy]) for which a dialect value is defined.&quot;</thetext>
