RE: ServiceSite

[Daniel Roth [MSFT]]

I believe ServiceSite is now called InstanceContext in our more recent builds. An InstanceContext is what hosts the
object on the client that the server can call into. For example, to implementing a duplex binding over HTTP the server
can issue independent HTTP requests back to the client using the contract specified.

The protocols used by WCF for implementing a duplex binding are not currently standardized so they are unfortunately
not interoperable.

We are working hard to improve our documentation for all topics even as I type this message. Please let me know if you
need further clarification on this issue.

Thanks!
