[OGSA-AUTHZ] Start of revised charter

[David Chadwick]

Hi Von

this service is similar to part of the WS-Trust STS service. It will 
validate any type of security token containing any type of attribute. So 
for example it can validate an X.509 AC or a SAML assertion.

On the other hand, XKMS is only a public key service, isnt it?

regards

David
