Using HTTP Redirect to send a Response? Profiles spec says no. Bindings spec says yes. Which is correct?
Hi Folks,

 

In section 4.1.2, bullet 5 of the Profiles specification it
says:  “The HTTP Redirect binding MUST NOT be used [for sending a
Response to a Service Provider], as the response will typically exceed the URL length
permitted by most user agents”.

 

In the Bindings specification, in 3.4.8 it shows an example
of using HTTP Redirect to send a Response to a Service Provider.

 

So, the Profiles spec says that HTTP Redirect must not be
used, whereas the Bindings spec says that HTTP Redirect can be used. 
Which is correct?  /Roger
