Not necessarily. There is a use case where:

1. Party A downloads binding information about Party B using a simple URL
from a web site either Party B's web site or a registry (UDDI?)
2. Then, in the header of a message, Party A refers to or includes Party B's
binding information as well as similar information about Party A and
specifies which bindings to use.
3. Party A sends the message to Party B

Where's the TPA (or is PA now) ?

Expaaaaaanding:

"Bindings to specific technologies belong in the TPA."

I am using the term "bindings" to refer to the means of specifying, for
example, what communication protocol is used with the messaging service for
a given business relationship.

Assume that the messaging service can be used with more than one
communication protocol, communication security definition, etc.  What is
needed is a means of specifying the name and parameters of the
communication protocol to be used for a particular business relationship.
This information cannot be specified in the message header because the
message cannot flow without a communication protocol being in place.
Therefore, the binding must be specified somewhere outside the messaging
service.  The natural place is the TPA.  The transport section of the tpaML
specifies what communication protocol and communication security parameters
will be used for message exchanges under that TPA.

What may be needed in the messaging service specification is some kind of
abstract definition of how information is exchanged between the messaging
service and the underlying transport level.

Regards,
Marty

In consultation with other members and having thought about the binding
issue
I have
come to think that bindings to specific technologies do not belong in the
spec at this time. I think
that an RS implementation must provide an interoperable TRP based api.

An RS implementation is free to provide any other APIs in addition to the
required TRP api as an implementation specific detail.
