Status of the delegation profile

[Erik Rissanen <erik@axiomatics.com>]

All,

Regarding the status of the delegation profile and the various technical 
issues, here are my opinions.

Based on Axiomatics' customer experience, I can say that there is no 
interest for this profile on the market. We had some early customers who 
were doing research type of work and they were interested in the 
profile. Some of these uses were research projects at the Swedish 
Institute of Computer Science, where I used to work, and some early 
customers to Axiomatics.

However, in the commercial market since then, there appears to be no 
interest in it. Also, you can solve these kind of use cases by using 
policy references and the right policy structure, and just letting 
different people edit different parts of the policy tree.

So, after some thinking based on what I see on the market, I would 
suggest that we discontinue the development of this profile.

If there is still interest, I would like someone else take over the 
editorial duties, since it is not something I want to spend my time on.

Best regards,
Erik
