I don't think we should point normatively to a spec with a URL that we
know will result in 404. IETF drafts do expire after 6 months.
I would like to suggest that we use the same link used by SOAP over JMS
spec (http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/CR-soapjms-20090604/):
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-merrick-jms-uri-05.txt
This URL points to an expired document, but the reader will at least be
able to retrieve it.
