> DESCRIPTION: Problems with Example 2b in chapter 7
> 
> There are a number of problems with Example 2b in section 7.3.1
> of cd02-rev2.
>    a. The <service> definitions for HelloService and HelloChildService
>       should be inside the <component> definitions for
>       HelloServiceComponent and HelloChildServiceComponent, not
>       free-floating inside the <composite> definition.
>    b. The <operation> definitions should not be within <component>
>       defintions.  I believe the intention may have been to put them
>       within <service> definitions.
>    c. <operation> elements within <service> definitions were
>       recently removed from the Assembly spec because of a decision
>       by the Policy TC.
>    d. The contents of the <operation> definitions don't seem
>       consistent.  For the operations in HelloService, the <operation>
>       elements provide fully explicit definitions of the intents that
>       apply to the operations.  However, for the operations in
>       HelloChildService, some of the <operation> elements only provide
>       partial definitions of the intents that apply.  Specifically,
>         "hello" specifies "confidentiality/transport" but does not
>            specify "authentication" and "integrity/transport".
>         "helloWorld" specifies "authentication" but does not
>            specify "integrity/transport" or "confidentiality/message"
> 
> PROPOSAL:
> 
> Move the <service> definitions for HelloService and HelloChildService
> inside the <component> definitions for HelloServiceComponent and
> HelloChildServiceComponent.
> 
> Replace the <operation> definitions using the policy external
> attachment mechanism to mark the operations with intents.
> 
> Make the intent specifications on all the operations fully explicit.
> Specifically, include the following explictly for HelloChildService:
>   operation "hello":  "confidentiality/transport", "authentication"
and
>                       "integrity/transport"
>   operation "helloWorld":  "authentication", "integrity/transport" and
>                            "confidentiality/message"
