[Mono-list] Webservise Discovery Language

[Kornél Pál]

Hi,

I attached a reference implementation in OptionalDiscoveryRequestHandler.cs.

You can control it using the internal 
OptionalDiscoveryRequestHandler.EnableDiscovery field.

The only thing you have to do is to compile the handler to a DLL (don't 
require it's own assembly, you can put into any existing assembly) and 
reference this type in Web.config instead of 
System.Web.Services.Discovery.DiscoveryRequestHandler.
