Also to answer that part, that is the way the schema was defined - if you have Endpoints which belong to a ComputingService they are ComputingEndpoints even if their type isn't directly related to computing, e.g. gridftp. But all the extra attributes in ComputingEndpoint are optional so it makes no practical difference, you can publish the same attributes as a plain Endpoint but give it the ComputingEndpoint type.
