Hi,

I see (belatedly) that your WSDL is v1.1 (not a standard and
never will be a standard). For what it's worth, the printing
industry has experienced real trouble building interoperable
SOAP-based implementations using WSDL/1.1 (the existing tools
that generate the SOAP are wildly incompatible) in our recent
PSI/1.0 (Print Services Interface) project in the IEEE/ISTO Printer Working Group organization.


I seriously urge you to abandon entirely the WSDL specification
for NetConf. It's only informative anyway (because WSDL/1.1
isn't standards track at W3C).



Is there a WSDL spec that is a somewhat stable standard? I would rather keep the text as non-normative than remove it. Informative text is a Good Thing in a document intended to help SW developers implement a protocol specification.

Cheers,
- Ira (co-editor of PSI/1.0).
