Subject: Document layout and miscellaneous things


Hi,

in the Word document, the "Definition term" template should not allow a 
page break directly beneath it. It should always go onto the same page 
as the following "Definition".

Is there any good reason to include the xsi:schemaLocation attribute in 
the examples? It makes up three lines in every example, and according to 
XMLSchema, it's just "hints as to the physical location of schema 
documents". I'd leave them out, since they make XACML look even more 
verbose than it is.

The identifier urn:oasis:names:tc:xacml:1.0:subject:name-format only 
appears once in the whole XACML-3.0-wd06 document. Maybe you meant to 
make the DataType of the subject-id <Attribute> to be x500Name?

In section 4.2.2, there is a DataType attribute without "quotes". Look 
for "DataType=htt". In the same example, look for "http:www". It's in an 
xsi:schemaLocation definition, so it might disappear anyway. In the 
sentence "are placed in the urn:oasis:", the "u" of "urn:oasis" is 
formatted as Attribute, the rest as "Standard".

There is no function called "integer-greater". It's 
"integer-greater-than" (four times).

The identifier "urn:oasis:names:tc:xacml:1.0:resource:simple-file-name" 
is mentioned in section 10.2.6, but not explained anywhere.

I don't know the data type "rx500Name".

The "duration-equal" function is explained, but not listed in section 
10.2.8.

Why are there extra <xf:dt-yearMonthDuration> tags in the example in 
4.2.4.2? In the conformance tests, these tags are missing.

Why do the VariableIds in the examples have so horrible names? Wouldn't 
"PatientIsYoungerThan16Years" be a better name in 4.2.4.2? And wouldn't 
date-less be more appropriate than date-less-or-equal?

I doubt that "date-less-or-equal is used to compute the difference of 
two date arguments", which is stated in the explanation.

The statement that "therefore Rule 3 has to be formatted as a <Policy> 
element" is useless. All the other rules are formatted that way as well.

So far for now. More will follow ...

Roland
