Subject: RE: [security-services] Roles for SAML 2.0 Metadata
I very much agree with Anthony's statement that 'various profiles should define the "roles" and not the metadata specification'. Indeed, the metadata specification is not seeking to define roles, but rather "identify" existing roles, taken from existing profiles, and then determine the metadata that needs to be defined for these roles.

Given the volume of work we're all trying to get done, I think the way we're moving forward is to start with as complete a proposal as we can, when that's available, and then work in the editing stage to figure out how best to incorporate the material. In this case, we just need to split the existing document up into new core text that provides a framework and then the rest of the material into the bindings and profiles. Which sounds like what you're encouraging, so I think we're in agreement. The point of the question about roles is simply to figure out which existing bindings and profiles we know we need to focus on before we deliver a working draft of the new material, since not all SAML roles are accounted for in the ID-FF submission. -- Scott To unsubscribe from this mailing list (and be removed from the roster of the OASIS TC), go to http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/security-services/members/leave _workgroup.php.
