Subject:
[sca-assembly] NEW ISSUE: (1.2) Must
a global domain channel be deployed before it can be used?

Title: Must a global domain channel be deployed before
it can be used?

Target: Assembly 1.2 WD 03

Description:

Via the "@target" and "@source" attributes defined
on a consumer & 

producer, the assembler can reference global domain channels.

In section 5.8, the presumed to be normative text reads "SCA runtimes

MUST support the use of domain channels [ASM????]."  That is
followed by:

"To create a Domain Channel, deploy a composite containing a channel

directly to the SCA Domain (i.e., do not use that composite as the 

implementation of some component in the Domain)."

Neither of the above indicate whether or not the global domain channel

can be used before it is referenced.

Proposal:

General theme: do not require the global domain channel to exist before

it can be used.

Specific text (needs refinement?):

In section 5.8, Paragraph #2, append:

When contributing artifacts to a domain that contain references to 

global domain channels that have not been created, the SCA runtime MUST

automatically create said global domain channels, and cannot reject such

contributions [ASM????].
