Subject: [xacml] Proposed changes to Appendix B. XACML identifiers
Here are changes I see required from a close reading of Appendix B. Assume "urn:oasis:names:tc:xacml:1.0: is prefix on all identifiers discussed below. Section B.2 Authentication locality These two identifiers, "authn-locality:ip-address" and "authn-locality:dns-name", should be moved under "Subject Attributes". For consistency, they should be renamed "subject:authn-locality:ip-address" and "subject:authn-locality:dns-name". If we had standard DataTypes for ip-address and dns-name, they could be one Attribute Identifier, with distinguished DataTypes, but I think it is too late to define new DataTypes (and the associated -equal and -match functions) now. This will work. Section B.3 Access subject categories These should also be moved under "Subject Attributes" as values for the "subject:subject-category" Attribute. Section B.5 Data types - Rename "datatype:x500name" to "datatype:x500Name" - Rename "datatype:rfc822name" to "datatype:rfc822Name" - Remove "datatype:ufs-path". This is a resource attribute, not a datatype. - Remove "datatype:numeric" - Remove "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema:Gregorian" - Add the other mandatory-to-implement primitive datatypes: xs:string xs:boolean xs:integer xs:decimal xs:date xs:dateTime xs:anyURI xs:hexBinary xs:base64Binary xf:dateTimeDuration xf:yearMonthDuration Section B.7 Subject attributes - The last line says "Add the LDAP attributes". Who is responsible for this? Section B.8 Resource attributes - "resource:resource-uri" should be changed to "resource:resource-id" - Add "resource:ufs-path" New Section after B.8: Action attributes - Add "action:action-id" - Add "action:action-namespace" Section B.12 Actions used in examples - Add "example:action:read" - Define "example:action:xml-ac" (Michiharu?) -- Anne H.
