WSDL version question
As a question, was WS-I B 2.0 developed before or after 2.0? An request to use 1.1 could be a “don’t use that bug-ridden 1.0” or it could be “stay away from the mistakes of 2.0”  or it could be “use the one that is current as of this pub date”

As a related note, the TAB in OASIS is examining specs to find cross-dependencies, and considering a means for recommended updates as standards advance.

Subject:  [energyinterop] WSDL version question

Hello,

Energy Interop wd 36 recommends conformance to WS-I Basic Profile 2.0.  The WSDL version supported by the WS-I BP 2.0 (and by 1.2) is WSDL 1.1.

The WSDL documents in wd 36 use the  http://www.w3.org/ns/wsdl  namespace which is the namespace of version 2.0 of WSDL rather than the WSDL 1.1 namespace,  http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/ .

Would it not make sense to deliver WSDLs in the interoperable version covered by the WS-I profile that the EI specification references?
