Subject: questions about X.509 Certificate Token Profile (CSD)
The following questions arose in the process of creating an appropriate cover page for the X.509 Certificate Token Profile (CSD). 1. Which URI should be used for the "Previous Version" specification? Options: a) N/A [consider 1.1.1 CSD01 the first, with no "Previous"] b) http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/v1.1/wss-v1.1-spec-pr-RELTokenProfile.htm [the v1.1 OS] c) http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/v1.1/wss-v1.1-spec-errata-os-x509TokenProfile.doc [the Errata spec] 2. Who should be listed on the cover page as Editors? The Work Product Registration for this spec lists five names: Anthony Nadalin, IBM Chris Kaler, Microsoft Ronald Monzillo, Sun Phillip Hallam-Baker, Verisign Michael McIntosh See: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/TCADMIN-295 http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/wss-m/201011/msg00008.html But the WD02 document (.doc) Custom Properties lists only two: Anthony Nadalin, IBM Michael McIntosh And the Version 1.1 OS listed as Editors these four: Anthony Nadalin, IBM Chris Kaler, Microsoft Ronald Monzillo, Sun Phillip Hallam-Baker, Verisign 3. Which URIs should be listed on the cover page for the Declared XML Namespace(s)? The Work Product Registration for this spec lists five, with one apparent duplication: http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-x509-token-profile-1.0 http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-x509-token-profile-1.0 http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-x509-token-profile-1.0#PKCS7 http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-x509-token-profile-1.0#X509v3 http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-x509-token-profile-1.0#X509SubjectKeyIdentifier See: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/TCADMIN-295 http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/wss-m/201011/msg00008.html But the WD02 document (.doc) Custom Properties lists only: http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-x509-token-profile-1.0 Inspection of the WD02 document "Section 2.2 Namespaces" reveals nine URIs that might be candidates for identifying XML namespace names, and of those, at least two ending in ".xsd" seem to be used in the XML schemas as XML namespace names: http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-soap-message-security-1.0#Base64Binary http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-soap-message-security-1.0#STR-Transform http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-x509-token-profile-1.0 http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-x509-token-profile-1.0#PKCS7 http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-x509-token-profile-1.0#X509SubjectKeyIdentifier http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-x509-token-profile-1.0#X509v3 http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/oasis-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.1.xsd 4. For clarification on spec development: is the TC planning to release at least CSD02 and CSPRD02 (after the CSPRD01 public review)? I ask because the WD02 document balloted for approval as CSD01 has a number of link errors which I imagine would be candidates for correction in CSD02. 5. In answers to any of the above, if principled grounds for the decision can be explained, it may obviate the need to ask similar questions for the other six WD02 specs, should those questions arise in my work. The method of communication specification metadata to TC Admin (in the design of October 2010) was that TCs would religiously edit the Custom Property values. I'm not sure if that works in all cases, so I'm testing the theory. Feedback would be welcome on that point. In theory: the Work Product Registration (template) sets out the initial values, and the TC Editors use the Custom Property values in successive Working Drafts to make any metadata updates. For "Related work:" in connection with this spec, I would plan to say it supersedes the OS and OS Errata, while being a part of the multi-part "Web Services Security" spec which includes six other parts.
