Imagine I was behind schedule writing the WSDL for something based on WSRF.

Which versions of various specifications should I be using now that are 
approximately in sync? Clearly I should not be specific as to how state 
is represented in an endpointer, or other details that are highly 
unstable.  But what versions of the WSA/WSDL/WSRF specs should be I be 
using, and where do they live?
