REL-114:final proposal to add a new attribute

Here is the final proposal:

 I like to propose an optional attribute by name type to
the Response element.

 The possible values are Acknowledgment and Fault
and the default being the

 former.

 If the value is Fault, then the response element corresponds
to a Fault message.

 Corresponding Fault code is sent in the Fault Header for SOAP
1.1 case and

 inside the  /soap12/Body/Fault/subcode for the SOAP 1.2
case.

 If the attribute doesn't exist or has a value of Acknowledgment,
then the Response

 Header/element corresponds to an Acknowledgment. Fault Header
if exists is ignored.

of

 the Fault Header (for SOAP 1.1_ to distinguish an Ack. To a Fault.

 This is some what tedious and instead having a simple attribute
with the type

 of the message will make it simpler and less error prone.

 This attribute can have any one of the following 2 values: Acknowledgment
or Fault.

 We have 2 ways to go wrt optionality:

 1) Make it mandatory and require that every message has the type
mentioned.

 2) Make it optional and default to Acknowledgment.

 I prefer Option (2)

 Issue Editors,

 Could you please add this a new issue?

 Thx!

 PS: This may be a resend as I had problems when sending the previous
one.
