Subject: NEW Issue: Is Appendix D Normative?
PLEASE DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL OR START A DISCUSSISON THREAD UNTIL THE ISSUE IS ASSIGNED A NUMBER. The issues coordinators will notify the list when that has occurred. Protocol: ws-sp http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/20578/ws-securitypolic y-1.2-spec-ed-01-r10-diff.pdf Artifact: spec Type: editorial Title: Is Appendix D normative or is it just a summary of information found elsewhere in the spec as Appendix A is? Description: The last sentence of section 1 says "Section 11, all examples and all Appendices are non-normative." That suggests that Appendix D is a summary of normative information which is found elsewhere. However, I can not find any other source of the information in WS-SP. If Appendix D is non-normative, then I question why it is in the document at all. Note that Appendix A explicitly says it is non-normative, suggesting that some Appendices may be. Appendix B could conceivably be considered normative, it is hard to tell. Appendix C is examples, so it seems safe to assume they are not normative, however it might be good to say explicitly that if Appendix C conflicts with section 6.7 then 6.7 takes precedence. Related issues: My previous issue. Proposed Resolution: Clarify which Appendices are normative.
