dss:RequesterIdentity use of saml:NameIdentifierType

["Pope, Nick" <Nick.Pope@thales-esecurity.com>]

Juan Carlos and All,

I had an enquiry from Ashad Noor regarding DSS.  He is looking at applying a
legal signature profiles spec which makes use of the DSS
<dss:RequesterIdentity>.

He asks:

> 
>    The DSS element <dss:RequesterIdentity>is from the DSS 1.0 spec and 
>     references the saml:NameIdentifierType" from the SAML 1.0 spec.
> 
>    As you know, even though applications can continue to reference
>    SAML 1.0, eNotary is defining its XSD at a time when SAML 2.0
>    is the current standard, and SAML 2.0 does not define a similar
>    element.
> 
>    So, the question is, do you know what DSS itself is going to do
>    about the saml:NameIdentifierType for its schema, and should ECF
>    take that into consideration for the Symmetric Key profile, and
>    thus eNotary TC too?

As far as I am aware no changes are planned in this area.  Is this true?
