   http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xacml/200907/msg00032.html

   Notes from Q&A after slide presentation:


   Vernon: java, plans for more languages
      interesting starting point -
    Hal: we are ready to go w Liberty, looking at other langs,
    exactly how to evolve in parallel - would like to see
    intf std in tc, but code gen based on AMF, lang bindings,
    other apis, std intf here, produce

    one question to throw out: c++, sort of reqts for .Net,
     suggesting c#, similar to java, also legacy c,c++ want
     a flat c-only api - possibly 2 projects for that.

    also scripting langs, saml, want to use from python, etc.
     like any open source people to get and what do they want
     to work on.

    Vernon: what about existing azapi, such as JACC.

    Vernon  why not xacml w jsr-115 -
    Hal: start w blank piece of paper; we looked at jsr-115, did not
      find readily available paths for certain constructs like obligations;
      also permission-based not general enough

    Rich: proposed arch, slide 6, is intended to incorporate jsr-115, as is,
     whereby SPI extension would utilize all jsr-115 context capabilities
     to gather attrs to make the azapi call to local or remote pdp; similarly
     jsr-115 Permissions would be "resource-types" and implemented accordingly
     by az provider called by Policy.implies() spi.

     Objective is to capitalize around existing infrastructure, not replace it,
     see slide 2, bullet 2, sub-bullet 2, and in particular, slide 5, bullet 3,
     AzApi enhance existing az providers - if an existing Extended Platform
     Az Provider as shown in slide 6 currently uses XACML PDP, then no chgs
     would implicitly be required to that impl - i.e. if it already works and
     it does all intended fcns then no need to change it.

     Note also, slide 7, bullet 2, the "red C" shows the places where AzApi
     modules "can be placed" to provide what is needed for particular situations.
     A major objective is to be able to deploy AzApi piecemeal as specific
     situations require - i.e. it gives a conceptual framework within which
     one can feel that build out existing quasi-proprietary solutions into
     a more general solution, that is less vendor and technology specific.

    Paul Tyson: xml serialization reading req/rsp

    Hal: receiver of xml req, take that stuff and call api, viewed
    as external to api, leaves selectors in limbo. primary focus
    was embeded pdp hi number decisions per sec, assume conv
    native format.
    Part of open source build proxy stub over the network; had to
    write a bit of code to format msg etc.

    Rich: Sun Xacml intended as an initial poc project to have AzApi
       impl using the SunXacml client modules

    Seth: interesting starting point; lot of stuff left to add.
    std in oasis?

    Hal: build code in apache like terms
    do api reqts in xacml tc

    Seth: oasis?

    Rich: sdo tc is example in oasis; lang reqts in oasis spec,
       zip files submitted, but dev presumably other external
       open source site.

    Hal: encourage people to join open src effort, trying to make it
    as efficient as possible.

    Rich: email me or tc to get answers to additional questions

    Hal: next call - 2 weeks: Aug 27, 10AM
