Subject: RE: [provision] First cut at the SPML schema to use for the interop
Hi Jeff, comments on first draft of interop schema 1) I'd like to see an attribute that could carry some aspect of authorization, e.g. role, level, userType etc. We need this information communicatetd in some manner so that we can subsequently apply appropriate access control based on it. Although the 'description' attribute in the current schema could serve, given that the SPML messages will at some point likely be displayed to the attendees, it would be preferable to have a more logical name for the attribute Perhaps we can avoid the issue of determining a list of meaningful values for this attribute by using simple integer values, e.g. <attr name="accessLevel"> <value>1|2|3|4|5</value> </attr> or, perhaps more relevant to the scenario, <attr name="contractLimit"> <value>1000|10,000|100,000</value> </attr> 2) only the 'cn' attribute is listed as required. Related to point 1) - we would need the 'accessLevel' attribute (or whatever it is called) to be required as well.) More generally, we should make all attributes that a PSP will 'use' to be required. I don't think we want to be in the situation of saying 'well if you had set this attribute in the form, you would have seen ........' We will need to of course balance this against the usability issue of having an attendee populating a long form with a wine glass in one hand and hor d'ouerves in another. Hopefully multiple PSPs will be able to leverage shared attributes.
