Title: RE: Proposed Changes to Core-12 (with renaming)
Bob,
Welcome to the same problems that XML Namespaces has in XML. Is there a default namespace, a null namespace (namespace present but no value), or a non-namespace (namespace not present) when a namespace is not present? I'm not even sure that I know the answer to my question on XML Namespaces, let alone have an opinion for SAML.
