RE: [xacml-dev] Conformance Tests for V2

??

The current conformance tests are valid for 1.1 and this spec is making
reference to XPath 1.0 (line 4013). And that version of XPath is a
recommendation, hence is stable.

In the conformance test IIIF005 the policy contains the following
selector:
<AttributeSelector
RequestContextPath="//md:record[?]/md:patient_info/md:name/text()"
MustBePresent="true"
DataType="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string"/>

And "[?]" is not a valid XPath 1.0 predicate. Since the conformance
tests has been validated with the Java implementation of Xpath, which
supports some features of XPath 2 the error was not raised before. I
fall into an error since .Net implements XPath 1.0, and the XPath
processor is throwing an error on parsing the expression.

Are they planning to move into Xpath 2.0? That's bad news for us...
Since the spec does not change in that matters I thought it will remains
with 1.0.

That makes me wonder:

There is no official Xpath 2.0 spec.  I just got back from the last call
meeting for W3C XQuery/Xpath2.0 working group - we are still a year away
from final recommendation in the best case.

It seems premature for that reason to include anything from Xpath 2.0
even as the core spec is fairly stable - it is not a referable standard
yet.

I've reported a bug too about an XPath expression which is using a
feature defined in a version of XPath that is not the version defined in
the specification.

Seth

I looked at Diego's work on converting Conformance tests to V 2.0

Is there any way to "officialize" these tests? I mean adding them to the
main XACML page, so the developers would use for testing tools. 

Also, who's responsible for fixing the conformance tests? I reported
some bug in the past, which don't seem to be fixed yet.

Thanks,
argyn
