[OGSA-AUTHZ] SAML XACML request context

[David Chadwick]

Dear WG

the final version of Use of XACML Request Context to Obtain an 
Authorisation Decision has now been stored on gridforum at

https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/doc15169?nav=1

This is the version that in the opinion of the authors is ready for 
public comment. With this message I am announcing the 7 day WG review 
period, so that the doc can be sent to the OGF editor next week ready 
for it to start the 60 day public review period.

Changes since the last version are as agreed at the OGF22 meeting and 
are as follows:

i) move attribute definitions and obligations definitions to 
non-normative annexes

ii) add a security section placing requirements on authn and 
confidentiality.

Note that the latter are a little different to those in Chad La Joie's 
SWITCH document, so the OGS/EGEE/GT folk who are familiar with Chad's 
work may want to comment on the differences in the next 7 days.

regards

David
