Subject: possible inconsistency in metadata spec
I'm looking at the 15-March-2005 "Metadata for the OASIS Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) V2.0" and noticed that there appears to be an inconsistency as follows: Section 2.3 "Root Elements" restricts the root elements in a metadata document to either EntityDescriptor or EntitiesDescriptor. However, Appendix A "Registration of MIME media type application/ samlmetadata+xml" appears to permit, in addition, AffiliationDescriptor as a root element. I think the latter seems like a mistake, unless I'm just misunderstanding something. The most recent errata document I have access to (22 May 2007) doesn't appear to have anything to say about this.
