Subject: RE: Issue Group 1 - SSO - Straw Ballot
Hi Darren, Thanks for this - you've obviously done a lot of work. In the text you have the following. > > ISSUE[UC-1-06:Anonymity] What part does anonymity play in [OSSML] > conversations? Can assertions be for anonymous parties? Here, > "anonymous" means that an assertion about a principal does not include > an attribute uniquely identifying the principal (ex: user name, > distinguished name, etc.). > > A requirement for anonymity would state: > > [R-Anonymity] [OSSML] will allow assertions to be made about > anonymous principals. I request that this requirement be rephrased as: <rephrase> [R-Anonymity] [OSSML] will allow assertions to be made about anonymous principals, where "anonymous" means that an assertion about a principal does not include an attribute uniquely identifying the principal (ex: user name, distinguished name, etc.). </rephrase> The reason for this, is that I believe it is important to make sure what we mean by anonymous is not lost. In my opinion, other definitions of anonymous, make this requirement unworkable. Thanks and regards, Nigel.
