Title: RE: Updated Issues List (draft-sstc-saml-issues-06.doc)

Hal - 
The only written response to my contribution on this topic was from Dan Ash (and 
that was supportive).  I did speak with Phill about it, and (I think) he 
felt he needed the group's explicit instruction to include it.  I have 
suggested text on the topic for the SubjectConfirmation section, but that text 
was not included in Core 15.  I am trying to figure out how best to get the 
"group" to instruct Phill to include it in the next draft.  Best 
regards.  Tim.

Sorry, I just missed it. I will add 
    it.

    
 

    
After doing a little research I am confused. At 
    first I thought, we have a usecase for some kind of document exchange in a 
    store and forward environment that would mandate this. I can't find one in 
    draft-sstc-saml-reqs-01. The only thing I found is a requirement for an 
    ebXML binding, which I suspect will require this, although I am not that 
    familiar with ebXML. I also cannot find open of closed issues on this kind 
    of a use case. Can anyone help me out? Does anyone from the usecase group 
    remember if store and forward transactions are supposed to be in or 
    out?

    
 

    
Assume the answer is "in", is this issue 
    controversial? Personally I thought this was one of the intended uses of 
    SubjectConfirmation. (I am having trouble following the discussion thread, 
    because this was originaly one point among many in your comments.) Have 
    there been any arguments against it?

Hal - I do have one issue that I would like to 
        raise.  I could offer to "champion" it, if it is 
        appropriate. 

        
There is a need for a subject confirmation method based 
        on a signature over a document.  Carlisle has dubbed this 
        "unaccompanied data".  Also, see Dan Ash's posting on the 
        topic ...

        
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/200108/msg00029.html 
        

        
Should this method be added to section 4 of Core 
        15? 

        
All the best.  Tim.

The issues list has been updated to reflect recent 
        discussions on the list. 
Some arbitrary 
        decisions were made about what are issues and what are merely 
        
editorial comments. Please let me know if I have missed 
        your issue. 

        
The issue status report has been delayed but will be 
        issued soon. 

        
Hal
