10:10 - 11:00 Issues
  Proposal for Context Note Change re: xPath
  http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xacml/200802/msg00006.html

	Erik: optimizations difficult because xpath can point
	anywhere. Can't do partial evaluations.

	Hal: should go ahead w it

	Erik: no known open issues

	Content node will be the default xpath
	xpath cannot climb out of this root, but possible to get around it.
	pdp might optimize query if you don't do it in particular way.
	recommend making private copy of request if want to get out.

  v3 "Practicalities"
  http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xacml/200802/msg00007.html

	Erik: duplicate combiners element, jaxb
	Hal: probably a typo/ upper line probably in by mistake
	Erik: remove the first one.

	2nd issue:

	Hal: xml schema defaults are becoming controversial: inconsistent
	 and can cause sigs to break, etc.

	Anil. S. 3.0 only, 
	Erik: no chgs to 2.0

	Anil: versions?
	Erik: vesions of Policy not schema

	Erik: effect of mandatory is to write them out, but that
	 is not really a default it is just a hard defn
	 in 3.0 only Version and MustBePresent are impacted.
	Hal: recommendation is to go ahead, make attrs mandatory

  Updated Obligations Proposal
  http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xacml/200802/msg00008.html
  http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xacml/200802/msg00015.html
  http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xacml/200802/msg00018.html

	Bill and Erik had recommendations:
	Erik: 2 things:
	  1. defined request format, part of families is defining metadata
	  2. defined timing attr proposed by David Chadwick

	  define what obligations before/after access

	  if after: make sure service has been delivered before billing
	  authority: side effects of access visible to obl before it is
		enforced.

	  David O is asking for authorities that interact with each other.

	Hal: what database info is visible at given point
	Erik: atomicity is about success, wouldn't apply obl if access
	 is unsuccessful.

	Bill: original intent of obls, timing of access and when obl
	 carried out may be different, can't really bound it.

	 need a "tried long enough" moment, so introduce ttl

	Hal: obl that are carried out in future: ex destroy data in 30 d.
	 maybe don't want to "start" for 30 d, or it's an upper bound

	Bill: billing situation, if x allowed, expect y

	Hal: issue where boundary of obl semantics really ends - beyond xacml

	 purpose: do better job "combining" obls, not to build out new
	  functionality.


	Anil Seldhana: had proposal on obl on wiki: will send email
	 to point people there.
	1) The wiki on Obligations I referred during the meeting is:
	http://wiki.oasis-open.org/xacml/ProposalForObligations

I was interested in knowing whether my comments on the wiki were considered by Bill/Erik.

  Updated Administration Schema
  http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xacml/200802/msg00014.html

	updated 2 sections out of date

	Hal: how general does it have to be - just cover access subject?
	Erik: potential for loops
	Hal: put resource limits on policy evaluations; hard to
	 detect a loop.

	Erik: different categories, maybe when you come thru loop
	 2nd time you are doing something different.
	Hal: would be nice to have some valid use cases.

	Erik: 2 more sections:
	  removing policies: made non-normative suggestion
		and issues around mgmt of removals
	  added conformance section: reduction of functionaliy
		not couple 2 unrelated things.

  PDP Meta Schema Proposal
  http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xacml/200802/msg00016.html
  http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xacml/200802/msg00017.html

	Erik: proposal: schema; pdp can declare what fcns it supports,
	 it's extensible; ex for Obligations family can publish what
	 families pdp implements.
	Hal: what about administrative attributes (metadata)

	Hal: is there default Rule combining reqd?
	Erik: ex schema has combing algorithm

	Hal: reduction of admin policies that enable non-root,
	 are attrs of admin those current or those at time
	 policy was created. Typically attr updates are historically
	 lost as to when/why.

	Hal: good start on schema, looking for more suggestions.

	Hal: what about publishing optional capabilties
	Erik: it does.
	Bill: say what obl families supported
