Hi; I agree with you on this. The BES specification is where this topic needs to be explicated rather than the HPC Profile. It's something I intend to bring up at the next telecon call.

Should we emphasize that if a compliant service supports input vectors longer than 1 that this service must return vectors of the same length as the input vector?
Leaving this out creates a gut feeling of "something's missing here" for me.
To me, the required matching of input and output vector lengths would seem to be something that ought to be required in the BES spec, and not the profile of it. I believe it is something that ought to be true of all BES implementations, yes? Donal.
