Web Services Profile of XACML (WS-XACML) WD 8

Colleagues,

WD 8 is a major revision of WS-XACML, not "major" in the sense of more 
functionality or wider scope, but "major" in the sense that the schema 
is now fully specified and the document itself is almost complete and 
contains more introductory material, explanatory material, and examples.

This revision should be thoroughly reviewed - I do not anticipate 
producing another revision for some time.  Members are invited to 
suggest additions, deletions, and modifications.  If you have not taken 
a look at WS-XACML yet, this is the draft to start with. 
XACMLAssertions, in particular, have now been put into practice and have 
been implemented, although not yet with full matching functionality.

The schema and the PDF version of the specification are linked off the 
TC Home Page under "Work in Progress".  The OpenDocument source has been 
submitted to the repository as well.

Regards,
Anne
