[OASIS Issue Tracker] (XDI-3) Section 2.4 - Persisten Identification

[OASIS Issues Tracker <workgroup_mailer@lists.oasis-open.org>]

Joseph Boyle  commented on XDI-3:
---------------------------------

Any portability of other definitions (of identifier conventions, dollar words, etc.) would be via XDI dictionary definitions. However, a single application could simply use its schema by convention in its code, without having dictionary definitions for portability, if it doesn't need to communicate this to other applications.

> "So a key design goal of XDI is to support the requirements of both persistent and reassignable forms of identification; to provide precise means to map between them; and to make it syntactically unambiguous which form is being used in which context."
> Shouldn't the 1st sentence  say "... to support the benefits of both..." ?
> Or remove "the requirements of".
> Comment: unlike most other design goals, it is not clear to me how we achieved the aforementioned goals. In particular, I'm not sure where reassignable identifiers are used in XDI? Is it through dictionaries?
