Re: [xacml] Standard combining algorithms

[Erik Rissanen <erik@axiomatics.com>]

Ray,

This is the introduction which is good for people new to the spec. I 
would say that let's keep the list there, but say that these are a few 
examples. That way we still keep the introduction easier to follow for 
new people, but we don't have to update this section each time a new 
algorithm is introduced in the future. I'll draft up some text for the 
next working draft.

Best regards,
Erik
