Impact of Resolution of ASSEMBLY ISSUE 157: Removal of constrainingTypefrom SCA Assembly specification.

Folks,

I am writing this note on behalf of
the SCA Assembly TC to inform you of a significant decision made by the
Assembly TC at its last meeting.

In the resolution to Assembly Issue
157 (http://www.osoa.org/jira/browse/ASSEMBLY-157),
the Assembly TC decided to REMOVE

the constrainingType feature ENTIRELY from the Assembly
specification and from the related XSDs.  See the minutes for the
details:

This decision may have an impact on
the specifications for which your TC has responsibility.

An updated version of the SCA Assembly
1.1 specification will be available shortly that reflects this significant
change.

Updated versions of the TestAssertions
and the TestCases for Assembly will be made available at a later point,
but the main effect will be the

straightforward removal of a set of
a assertions and the related set of testcases.

Yours,  Mike.
