AD review: draft-ietf-netconf-soap-05
Hre is my AD review. Sorry that this one slipped through
the cracks and took a bit longer. I have also seen
the suggested changes (as per below email from Ted) and
will assume such changes will be made.
A lot of the SOAP/WSDL stuff is completely new for me,
so pls bear with me if I ask newbee questions.
But I think we should assume that others who read the
documents may also be newbees, and so maybe we should at
least make it all clear in the document.
- I do not see in the document how a session-id gets
passed from setting up a BEEP or HTTP conenction
to the NetConf protocol level so that NetConf can use
the session-id. Maybe it is there, but I do not see it.
Pls explain and clarify in the text.
- sect 3.7
- Is it OK to assume a "hypothetical location", or should we
decide and/or request IANA or xmlsoap.org to define a
real and approved location?
- Have you (has anyone) done a SYNTAX check on the WSDL
document, and if so, which tool was used?
- In the WSDL document, there are www.iana.org items.
for example I see:
<import namespace="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"
location="http://www.iana.org/assignments/xml-registry/
schema/netconf-base_1.0.xsd"/>
WHere is that coming from.
Maybe that is to be found in the missing (i.e. TBD) text from
the netconf-protocol document?
Another example
xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/"
Does that need a citation/reference?
xmlns:tns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:soap:1.0"
Does IANA now how to create that? Or is there no IANA
action needed for that?
There may be other stuff. Once I understand the above I can
check further and see if I have more questions.
- IANA considerations Section
- says "IANA will". Maybe better: "IANA is requested to"
- Is the port for BEEP not already requested via the
netconf-over-beep document?
- Where is IANA supposed to put the WSDL definition?
you say in the XML registry. WHich is the document that
explains how to do that? Where is the ptr to the iana
we page that contains these sort of documents?

NITS:
- Pls expand Acrionyms first time they are used.
For example BEEP in the abstract.
WSDL in 3rd para section 1.
- Sect 2.5, last sentence.
you may want to add a citation (and reference) to the RFC(s)
that describes "chunking and persistent connections".
- I see sometimes "Reciever" and other times "Receiver".
I think it should be consistent: "Receiver"
