Blair,

I have the pen on this document till the next call so I will see if I
can make the text clearer. Responses inline:

I think the 'bsp' entry can be deleted from the table since it is not a
namespace; it is a conformance claim URI.

The main purpose of this profile is to fill the security 'gap' left in
the WSRF Basic Profile (GFD.72), section 8. Briefly, the WSRF BP says
that it has to be combined with an OGSA Basic Security profile that
exposes the generic conformance claim URI
  http://www.ggf.org/ogsa/2006/05/bsp

This is not the BSP 1.0 conformance claim. The BSP 1.0 conformance claim is
  http://www.ggf.org/ogsa/2006/01/bsp-core.

BSP 1.0 exposed both the generic claim as required by WSRF BP and also
defined its own conformance claim. BSP 2.0 follows this pattern also.

I hope this is clearer, but if it's not we can talk about it on the call.

It's on my list of things to do.

Thanks.
