During the focus group telcon this afternoon, I promised to forward 
pointers to the list about the current authorization-related work we're 
doing for globus.

Two weeks ago, we had our user conference in Boston 
(www.globusworld.org), where Anne Anderson gave a great introduction 
about XACML, after which Takuya Mori and I presented about our early 
work on a generic authorization processing framework that should find 
its way into the globus runtime in the not-so-far future.

There is no real oficial documentation yet about this authorization 
framework, but the presentation proposal we wrote for Tim Moses's 
workshop gives you a one page description:

Furthermore, you can find a copy of our GlobusWorld presentation here:

(http://tinyurl.com/5w49h)

(I'll send a pointer to Anne's xacml-presentation as soon as I found the 
final version...)

My idea was to use one of the upcoming xacml focus group meetings to 
give a walkthrough of this work as I believe it is relevant to the 
delegation features that we want to add to xacml.

Enjoy, Frank.
