Errors in Authentication Context Schemas

I think 2) and 3) are simple editorial. There may be 
something more involved with 1) 

 

1) 
Core AC schema defines 
RestrictedPasswordType with a minInclusive length for the password of 3 
characters. 

 

<xs:complexType 
name="RestrictedLengthType">
    
<xs:complexContent>
      <xs:restriction 
base="LengthType">
        
<xs:attribute name="min" 
use="required">
          
<xs:simpleType>
            
<xs:restriction 
base="xs:integer">
              
<xs:minInclusive 
value="3"/>
            
</xs:restriction>
          
</xs:simpleType>
        
</xs:attribute>
        
<xs:attribute name="max" type="xs:integer" 
use="optional"/>
      
</xs:restriction>
    
</xs:complexContent>
  
</xs:complexType>

Not clear to me why Core 
should define a specific requirement of a minimum password length. 
Putting such a restriction into Core rather than a particular 
class would prevent anybody from defining 
a new class with a minimum length of 2 characters?  

 

2) 
The class schemas all? still have the <AuthenticatingAuthority> 
element. It was removed from the Core 
schema and elevated to a child of 
<AuthnStatement>

 

Propose removing 
<AuthenticatingAuthority> from the class 
schemas.

 

3) The Core 
AC schema defines AuthnContextDeclarationBaseType with an 
<AuthenticationMethod>, the classes use <AuthnMethod>

 

Propose renaming <AuthnMethod> in class schemas 
to <AuthenticationMethod>
