[OGSA-AUTHZ] SAML AuthZ Service / Web Services Security X.509 Certificate Token Profile

[Markus Lorch]

Hi all,

the SAML AuthZ Service document in section 6.1 requires us to 
use the Web Services Security X.509 Certificate Token Profile
to encode certificate paths. I have been keeping my eyes open
for an implementation of this standard for the last few months 
with no success. 

Do any of you know of an implementation or are working on one?
(e.g. for the delegation service?) Do you have other implementations/
standards to encode certificate paths via XML?

Btw, the reference to this standard in the document needs
updating, the standard was finalized in the Spring of 2004, it
is no longer a draft. - There is an old "Editor's note"
in section 6.1.2	SubjectConfirmation Element from Von that 
can also be taken out. Maybe this can be fixed before its
submitted to the editor (otherwise I'll repost in public comment)

Thanks

Markus
