Question on SAML V2.0 Identity Assurance Profiles ,Version 1.0

Hi Paul, Bob, Scott

I have a question on your latest CD.

We have built a system which requires the LOA to be split into two 
components, the registration LOA and the authentication/login LOA.

I's like to know if you have envisaged your CD to be used to represent this.

So could I for example send this in the IDP's metadata

  <saml:AttributeValue>
             http://foo.example.com/assurance/regloa1
             http://foo.example.com/assurnace/loginloa3
  </saml:AttributeValue>

This could be used to represent authentication by a Versign Class 1 
certificate which does very little registration (level 1) but whose 
authn/login strength is much higher (say level 3).

Similarly we want to be able to send this dynamically in a SAML 
assertion. I presume it would be admissable there as well?


regards

David
