Contract-First Service Development Part II

This is a great article and I used a bunch of what you wrote about this week. Specifically creating XSDs first, running xsd /c, and the XmlElement attributes on the return type and WebMethod function arg.

You are right...WSDL is brutal. I hate it. Speaking of which, if someone decides to implement WS-Security with Username Token over SSL, what's the process to make sure your WSDL broadcasts the WS-Security requirement? If I create a custom SOAP header it shows up in the ?WSDL for the ASMX, but the Username Token does not. Do you have to roll your own WSDL to make that happen?
