RE: [wsbpel] Issue - 286 - Proposal to Vote

[Rania Khalaf <rkhalaf@watson.ibm.com>]

Hi guys,
Dunno whether I can send a proposal for vote before the issue is opened, 
but here is the proposal to close 286.

Proposal:

Modify BEC definition to allow adding <import>, <partnerLinks>, 
<partnerLink>, <variables>, <variable> elements at the <process> level, 
as long as the declarations of any such newly added elements are NOT 
referenced by existing constructs in the AP (before opaque token 
replacement).

Spec Text Changes:

CHANGE:

FROM:

A Basic Executable Completion of an Abstract Process is defined as an 
Executable Completion whose allowed syntactic transformations are 
limited to Opaque Token Replacement (1. (b) i. above), plus the addition 
of a start activity if none are present in the Abstract Process (per 
clause [5] of section 13.1.3. Hiding Syntactic Elements).
