The three "Express Authentication Profile" documents have undergone a 
further revision and have been posted to the OGSA Gridforge document 
repository.  If you are (or are about to) socialize these documents 
amongst colleagues, please refer them to the latest versions. 

Changes of note:

    * Updates from Hiro's round of comments.
    * Fixed problem of identifying WSA headers for signing: added XPath
      expression to indicate all headers containing
      "IsReferenceParameter=true" attribute.
    * Fixed duplicate policy id issue with respect to supplemental
      input/output message protection policies.
    * Wordsmithing on introduction to "get to the point" quicker.
    * Other minor edits for clarity.

Cheers,

Duane
