I see a few separate
issues/questions connected to the relationship of BP 1.0 and
BPEL.
1- Would BP 1.0
be restricting BPEL to the point that some of BPEL's functionality would not be
available?
I cannot think of
any such restriction off the top of my head.
2- Would the fact
that BP 1.0 only addresses the SOAP/HTTP binding imply that also BPEL should be
limited to that type of binding?
I don't think that
anybody would imply that.
3- Should a BPEL
process be offered as a Web service that is BP 1.0
compliant?
My answer would be
yes.
3- Would it be fair
to limit BPEL use to interacting with BP 1.0 compliant Web services
only?
My personal answer
would be yes. But I am a member of WS-I, and I understand other people might
have different answers.

1.0
For the benefit of
the non-expert could post a salient example please? Specifically, a BPEL
usage pattern that would not work if BP 1.0 is followed but would work if any
WSDL 1.1 portType is allowed. In other words, is BP 1.0 a restriction on
the WSDL artifacts we use or potentially on BPEL
itself?

The sections 5.5 and 5.6 in the basic profile (http://www.ws-i.org/Profiles/Basic/2003-08/BasicProfile-1.0a.htm)
are devoted to binding aspects but, several major sections including section
4, other sections of 5 address abstract aspects of WSDL, which is a pretty
large portion. All those are applicable BPEL
IMO.

Most of the BP 1.0 directives are
binding related. BP also forbids outbound operations which BPEL does not
use. Can someone identify a directive in BP 1.0 that actually affects
BPEL?
