Subject: RE: [ws-sx] WS-Policy and WS-Trust


For the record, the WS-Policy charter says that they will go into CR in March.  This was just completed.  The plan is to go to PR in July and then
to recommendation.  Clearly, these are estimates but so far the WG has done well and followed the timeline.

So, if we want to wait for PR, we have to wait 4 months.

All the best, Ashok
