I've actually been reading some philosophy of language recently, but I
still can't figure out what you mean by this.
But actually what I want to express concern about is the word "claims".
It did appear in SAML 1.1 but only in an odd little corner. As far as I
can tell the word has been imported from WSS, but it isn't defined
anywhere in SAML documents. I am concerned that it may not mean in SAML
exactly what WSS means by it. I would prefer to use a more concrete
phrase like "the statements in the assertion" rather than defining yet
another term, but if "claims" is to stay it needs a definition somewhere
(and not just in the glossary IMHO).
