Subject: RE: [xacml] Minutes of XACML TC Meeting 30 August 2007
I have promised to look at #67, but was out of town/time recently. Whatever language we come up with - I should probably review it on the XPath working group - we have a face to face in early October. They are usually very helpful with reviewing standards referencing XPath/XQuery. Daniel; -----Original Message----- From: bill parducci [mailto:bill@parducci.net] Sent: Thursday, August 30, 2007 9:26 AM To: XACML TC Subject: [xacml] Minutes of XACML TC Meeting 30 August 2007 Minutes of XACML TC Meeting 30 August 2007 1 Roll Call & Minutes Attendees Hal Lockhart (Co-chair) Bill Parducci (Co-chair, minutes) Erik Rissanen Anthony Nadalin Seth Procter Ron Williams Anil Saldhana David Staggs Anil Tabbepla (Observer, Securent) Quorum achieved (72% per Kavi) Approval of Minutes Vote on approval of 16 August TC meeting minutes APPROVED: UNANIMOUS CONSENT 2 Administrivia Editorial update Drafts uploaded and contain the latest approved changes. XACML v3.0 timing ----------------- Hal offered that the TC should consider incorporating the broader scope of features discussed by the TC and not releasing a delegation centric release given the effects and effort associated with a release. The general consensus of the TC is that the list of outstanding issues be reviewed individually, Champions defined and the final cutoff list for v3 be made by the next meeting. Erik offered that the Issues list be split between a v3 list and a post 3.0 list to keep things cleaner. Numbering will remain the same. Hal noted that he will be attending the Jericho Forum in September. Rich posted his Summary on the Interop to the list for review. 3 Issues #12 Erik suggested that generalized Obligations be withdrawn because from 3.0 because there wasn't activity by others on the list. Hal voiced interest in reengaging the topic within the TC. #23 Hal stated that this work in progress. #62 Hal stated that this work in progress. #66 Rich discussed how "missing attributes" was not well adopted during the Interop and that this area needs better definition to be applicable--normative definition. Seth offered to assist with creating documentation to address usage/implementation patterns. #67 This requires Xpath expertise. The TC is looking for someone #71 Hal will evaluate possible solutions and comeback to the TC with a proposal or suggestion to defer. #72 The issue of where policies supplied in a 3.0 XACML-SAML access request end up in the PDP in relation to other policies already present in the PDP is currently not specified. Erik will work on a proposal for this. #75 Rich will evaluate this issue and comeback to the TC with a proposal or suggestion to defer. #76 Hal and Erik will evaluate this issue and come back to the TC with a proposal or suggestion to defer. Trusted Issuer -------------- Erik offered that this is not necessary because its use is not clear and adds undue complexity. Hal offered that the the TC hold off making this change and give the members a chance to consider this for a few weeks before removing. Erik also offered that the trusted issuer be required (he will post a note on this to the list.) V2 Compatibility ---------------- Hal voiced concern about how providing backward compatibility affects acceptance and adoption of a new specification. Attribute selectors do not have a mechanism for compatibility so Hal was willing to concede that v3 would not be compatible with v2 attribute selection mechanisms. Seth asked for clarification on the normative requirements of "compatibility". The general consensus is that this issue is limited to the changes in XPath expressions with respect to the Context Handler. The TC needs to agree on how to limit the scope of the required 2.0 compatibility. The current draft spec has a normative requirement which is believed to be impossible to implement fully. V3 "Diff" Documentation ----------------------- Rich is working to compile a delta between v2 and v3 features. Erik offered to review this directly with him. meeting adjourned.
