Thanks Arvinder.

If this was supported I'd expect it to be part of the EPR.  Each Service can have multiple EPRs and the "state" of each could be different, right?

We were saying that this type of more advanced lookup might be part of a future release.  JAXR has the ideas of Service "Classification" and "Concept" and I'd guess that these could be used as parameters to a lookup.  In the mean time though, the client/user can manually filter the Service list returned from getServices by manually interpretting the Classification/Concept settings on each Service.

Note really sure about this Arvinder.  So does the client need access to the physical XSD, or does it simply request the service to perform validation "XYZ"?
