II. Administrivia
 Time Change
  The time change in the US is schedule for Sunday 13th, however the EU
  is scheduled for the 27th. The next call will be "1 hour earlier" for
  EU participants.

 F2F
  The TC will not meet during the ID Trust meeting timeframe. The 
  Chairs wish to continue soliciting locations/dates to acommodate
  a F2F in the Spring.

 ITU-T 
  Hal noted posting links of interest for ITU-T to list. Abbie will
  review within the next week.

 W3C Privacy/Trust Work
  Paul asked if Hal is still in contact with W3c, since he has noticed
  there seems to be an interest in that organization looking for a privacy
  language. Hal noted that he is not aware of any directly related policy
  work.

III. Issues

 Attribute Assertions in XACML request
  Greg is writing fist draft of a schema and sample files to post to
  the list. The proposal contains text that is profile-like. The aim
  is to post sometime next week for review. Current work on using 
  Obligations to address attributes, in particular how FulfillOn is
  applied is being considered. The desire is to have Obligations 
  thrown even when Indeterminate is encountered. Paul offered that he
  is uncomfortable with using Obligations as a general communication
  mechanism. Paul suggested that creating a unique namespace may allow
  for this in the response. Greg will start a thread on the list to 
  discuss the Use Case and open discussion. 

 Sticky Policies
  Hal introduced the topic of sticky policies: policies that are signed
  and attached to the data. He suggested that a Profile may be
  constructed to solve this problem using XACML. Paul offered that the
  spec lacks a way to "point directly" to a resource (stateless 
  reference only). Paul offered to develop some Use Cases to demonstrate
  this. Rich asked Hal to post this concept to the list.

 Conformance Tests
  Doron described his conversion of XACML v2 to XACML v3 work that has 
  been posted to the bitKoo site. Hal requested that we need to get a 
  version of the tests into the Oasis svn repository. Doron proposed a 
  vetting process to allow a broader audience to participate. Hal 
  requested a proposal on how to do this. Doron will work with Bill 
  to come up with a proposal. Paul noted that the TC need to address the
  uniqueness of Policy IDs as part of this. Paul will work with Doron and
  Bill on the proposal to address this.

meeting adjourned.
