That's my opinion, too !

I would like to define the async profile as close to the XKMS mechanism 
as possible. People implementing DSS will usually know XKMS, so I 
wouldn't like to confuse them with a slightly different protocol for the 
same purpose.
So : Allow definition of ResultMajor in a profile !

I propose to define the ResultMajor 'Pending' in the Async Profile. 
TryAgainLater would be absolete.

Rich, do you have any objections ?
