[Oslc-Automation] Important Automation Spec updates requiring review by Thursday - Part 2 Support for the synchronous automation scenario

[Michael F Fiedler]

As we continue our effort to move the Automation specification towards
convergence, there are two important new areas of updates to review based
on last week's discussion.   These are a) updates discussed in the meeting
to attempt to finalize the "in" and "out" parameter names and descriptions
and  b)  the inclusion of wording and a new attribute to support the
synchronous automation scenario.

Splitting this e-mail into two parts to allow for better on-topic comments.

Summary and sections to review for the synchronous scenario:

- Description of the synchronous interaction style:

- A new Automation Request attribute to allow clients to indicate they can
handle synchronous interactions:
http://open-services.net/bin/view/Main/AutoSpecificationV2#Resource_AutomationRequest
- Update to Query Capability requirements (MUST for asynch capable
providers):
http://open-services.net/bin/view/Main/AutoSpecificationV2#Query_Capabilities
- Update to HTTP method requirements:
