Just in case you have not seen this, It appears RefProps will be removed from EPR's. Something we should discuss.

Mark and Mark, It looks like RefProps are gone as of yesterday: see http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/addr/wd-issues/#i001 .

Mark, I have a distinct dislike for RefProps/RefParams, as you're aware. However, putting my pragmatic hat on for a moment, I don't see them vanishing in this release of the specification. That doesn't prevent us from debating their utility (or lack thereof), but I suspect it would be better to take it off this mailing list if we're to try to maintain the timeline that was proposed by the submitters and agreed upon by the members of the group. Who knows, there may be a change in a subsequent release?
Also, I'm not sure why you moved my text around, but it could change the context of what was originally intended. I didn't mention the word "identification" at all in the proposed
text I said.
Mark.

This is a new spec we're working on, no? Those
implementations can
continue to depend upon whatever version of the spec they
currently
depend upon. Nothing we do here can break them, AFAICT.
I agree that the term "identifier" can be contentious. However, so can the term "state". How about just calling it/them "additional information that referencing specifications [aka
using
specifications] or implementations need in order to ultimately address
the
endpoint service"?
From my POV, there appears to be agreement to removing
the part of
the
spec that talks about using RefProps for identification.
Adding "in
order to ultimately address" back in would be akin to
undoing that
change. The point of the change, as I see it, is to get
identifying
information out of the RefPs, and into the URI, and I
consider that an
enormous improvement over the WS-A submission.
That way we're not saying *what* goes in there, only *why*.
IMO, identification is a "what".
