The W3C Web Services Addressing Working Group has posted a new working drafts of Web Services Addressing - WSDL Binding. According to the abstract, "Web Services Addressing provides transport-neutral mechanisms to address Web services and messages. Web Services Addressing 1.0 - WSDL Binding (this document) defines how the abstract properties defined in Web Services Addressing 1.0 - Core are described using WSDL." Interedting note: "The Web Services Addressing Working Group has decided to use XML Schema, where appropriate, to describe constructs defined in this specification. Note that this restricts use of Web Services Addressing to XML 1.0." Changes in this draft are mostly editorial, and include using IRIs instead of URIs.
