I understand the inconsistency of having only ws-sp covered by
an examples document, but I’m not sure we need one for the others.
Ws-Trust, for example, has plenty of message examples in the spec itself. This
document is filling a void in the current ws-sp spec. Would adding the examples
to the ws-sp spec directly remove the inconsistency you’re concerned
with?

Suggest that the interop documents be a start
of including this material, does not make sense to have just WS-SecurityPolicy
examples if we are going to have a examples document should be inclusive of the
TC efforts

Re: [ws-sx] Proposed Charter Clarification

The examples document is intended as stated in
the abstract to "give examples
of how policies may be defined for several existing use cases that have been
part of the WS-Security Interops that have been conducted", where the
previous paragraph defines these to include "WS-Security TC and other
WS-Security based Interops".
As such, this would not include stand-alone WS-SC and WS-Trust. However,
it would include WS-SC and WS-Trust as included in any of the above mentioned
interops, such as the WS-SX Interop.
If someone would like to write up appropriate examples of these for the
examples
doc, they would be a welcome addition. I had been considering it while the
WS-SX Interop was in progress, however from that time on resource limitations
prevented me from personally doing it. We could probably add a full section to
describe in a similar level of detail the ws-sx interop examples. In fact, the
unfinished example 2.3.2.5 would be a good place to start with this, as it
relates to an earlier Interop, but may be more appropriate to apply instead
to the more recent Interop.
Thanks,
Rich

is that if we are going to have an examples document it should not be just
about WS-SecurityPolicy but about all the specifications in the TC, so I don't
agree with what Hal submitted

PM---Hal,
Hal,
Not sure where we are going with this, as I understood it, the chairs
had requested charter language to support the "SecurityPolicy
Examples"
document. I think your proposal speaks to that quite clearly.
Clearly, the SecurityPolicy examples could reference WSS or any of
the
WS-SX standards.
So I am not sure what this discussion is about...
