Subject: RE: [xacml-comment] More questions about new version 2.0
Diego - Check out Section 5.42, where it says ... "The <AttributeSelector> element's RequestContextPath XML attribute SHALL contain a legal XPath expression whose context node is the <xacml-context:Request> element." And, yes. We will use a new namespace. All the best. Tim. -----Original Message----- From: Polar Humenn [mailto:polar@syr.edu] Sent: Wednesday, July 07, 2004 11:36 AM To: Diego M.

I'm not an expert on this Xpath stuff.
