Ah, thanks for clearing that up. That will simplify the work quite a bit. We'll take a look at the MUSTs/SHALLs and ensure that the conformance language is clear to implementers. Thanks for the update.

The conformance section can be as simple as something like -- to be conformant with this spec you must adhere to all musts, etc. -- some TCs take that approach while others repeat a long list of conformance clauses. > > Some examples: > http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsfed/federation/v1.2/cd/ws-federation-1.2-spec-cd-01.html#_Toc203882387 > http://docs.oasis-open.org/uoml-x/v1.0/cd01/uoml-part1-v1.0-cd01.html#4.Conformance|outline > > > Regards, > > Mary > >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Arshad Noor [mailto:arshad.noor@strongauth.com] >> Sent: Wednesday, July 16, 2008 2:37 PM >> To: mary.mcrae@oasis-open.org >> Cc: 'ekmi' >> Subject: Re: [ekmi] [Fwd: Groups - oasis - Ballot "Motion to submit SKSML >> Specification 1.0 (DRAFT 6) for public review" has closed] >> >> I'm afraid that I was misled by the template Mary.
