Subject: Additional glossary terms
Some additional terms from core we need to define along with some lousy suggestions as a starting point, suggestions welcome. They are interdependent definitions, because they sort of are a set of related terms. name qualifier A string that disambiguates an identifier that may be used in more than one namespace to represent different principals. namespace (in the federated sense, not the XML sense) A domain in which an identifier is unique in representing a single principal. affiliation A set of system entities that share a single namespace of identifiers for principals. I prefer this more limited definition for affiliation to the one in the Liberty glossary, but maybe others disagree. -- Scott
