Re: [wsrp] Issue #41: PROPOSED RESOLUTION

At least for draft 06 of the specification,
move the new factories (copyPortlets and exportPortlets) to new portTypes,
remove ServiceDescription metadata about supported factories and consider
under issue #40 whether import and export should be in separate portTypes.

Re: [wsrp] Issue #41: use
wsdl rather than wsrp metadata for supported factories?

Having now seen the impacts of having these factories in the PortletManagement
portType, I would prefer to move them to their own portTypes and use the
composability of wsdl to indicate what is supported.

[wsrp] Issue #41: use wsdl
rather than wsrp metadata for supported factories?

Issue # 41

Spec section: 

SubCommittee: Interfaces

Owner: Rich

Description: Rather
than having our own metadata for supported factories, move the new factories
into additional portTypes and use WSDL to indicate what is supported. Note,
the reasons for first placing them in the PortletManagement portType were:

1.        Encourage their implementation as many implementations
are expected to implement this portType (for destroyPortlets if nothing
else). 

2.        Reduce the explosion of portTypes
