Reason for
change:
*
Annex E in OWS Common defines "Guidelines for creating and using WSDL". This Annex is informative. In clause E.2 ("Relationship to OGC service descriptions"), a way is shown with which the WSDL description of a service can be referenced from within the Capabilities document of a service. This is a nice feature.
However, the XML Schema from OWS Common for the CapabilitiesBaseType and otherwise do not contain such an element at all, though it would be quite helpful. Why is it not included / defined as an optional part of the CapabilitiesBaseType (or sub-component)? It could for example be another - optional - section of the Capabilities document that can be queried by clients.
Summary of
change:
*
Provision of another - optional - section of the Capabilities document that can be queried by clients for WSDL description of a service
within the XML Schema from OWS Common for the CapabilitiesBaseType
