HJold on - not so fast -- the white paper has neither been reviewed nor accepted. And the specification needs to say enough to help someone understand.

The example document is not in our work area at this time.

The explanation is needed for a successful public review, looking forward.

This information could be put in an informative (non-normative) appendix 
to the spec.

PLEASE DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL OR START A DISCUSSION THREAD UNTIL THE 
ISSUE IS ASSIGNED A NUMBER.

The issues coordinators will notify the list when that has occurred.

Title: Use of Business Rating Not Clear

Description:

BusinessRating-v1.0-spec-wd05.pdf

The use of BusinessRating is not clear from the specifications. The use 
case document (proposed in the Related Issue) would help a great deal. 
The bidirectional nature, communicating both a claimed set of 
credentials+ratings and (apparently) a validated set of 
credentials+ratings is confusing in that it uses the same instance to 
communicate two different things.

The two way usage is also confusing in that it follows the "peek/poke" 
model of setting parts of a data structure and returning it; if this is 
indeed what's being done in the intended use, it should be changed to 
something more appropriate for the SOA/web services environment.

Related issues:
Use Case Document and additional justification

Proposed Resolution:

Refactor to avoid the confusing two way use. Add rationale in a 
non-normative appendix to explain and justify the choice made.
