    Doesn't zero payloads mean SOAP 1.1 rather than SOAP w/ Attachments since there are no attachments?

Actually, it seems to me that this question really ought to be decided by the SOAP 1.1 With Attachments specification, since the question of whether to use a multipart-with-one-part arises not only for ebXML but anything else using SOAP 1.1 With Attachments . Unfortunately their spec does not seem to deal with the issue, as far as I was able to tell from looking at it. -- Dan ---------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe or unsubscribe from this elist use the subscription manager: < http://lists.oasis-open.org/ob/adm.pl >
