oops.  OK  :-)
Seems like the best way is to make it plugable.

Thanx,

The WS-RX committee has just removed exponential backoff from the working spec :-)

The committee has added the following wording to the spec (roughly)

  "Consequently, implementers are encouraged to utilize adaptive mechanisms that dynamically adjust re-transmission time and the back-off intervals that are appropriate to the nature of the transports and intermediaries envisioned.  For the case of TCP/IP transports, a mechanism similar to that described as RTTM in RFC 1323 [RTTM] should be considered."

 So based on this I would try to base Sandesha's on RFC1323.

I seem to recall that I asked a similar question a while
back, and while I do not have a definitive answer, I tend
to agree with your interpretation:

(a) Just do a simple binary exponential backoff, i.e.
double the interval on every retransmission.

(b) Back off for individual messages, not whole sequences.
This is because there is no way to shrink the interval with
exponential backoff, therefore you might soon end up with a
very large interval and all its associated problems, foremost
that of not being able to detect loss on time, just because
a few messages had to be resent.
