RE: FW: [ws-rx] Revised proposal #2 for i122 - i124
I don't follow your concern here. Maybe the pseudo-code for 
step 5 / slide 3 is misleading. All it says is: RM processor 
asks the Security Processor to return an abstract handle for the token that is 
referenced by the STR with Usage attribute set to the value ".../SequenceToken" 
in the WSS Header. IMHO, this simple operation does not violate any of the 
WSS processing rules and non-normative App. D in WSS is neutral wrt 
@Usage.

You have seem to require changes in every WSS stack with step 5, this is 
  not acceptable.

All,

as 
  an informal supplement to our proposal, please find a technical
analysis of 
  the different processing models behind the current proposals
wrt. issues 
  122 - 124.

I'd also like to propose some time on the agenda of our call 
  this week
to discuss these slides in the context of the security 
  issues.

Thanks and regards,
Martin

Marc,

Attached to 
  this message you will find an alternative solution proposal 
that meets the 
  requirements for i122-i124. The proposal is co-authored
by SAP and Oracle. 
  The proposal is expressed as a diff over your 
original proposal.

We 
  believe that our proposal has certain advantages over the original 
  
proposal. These include:

(1) Supports a more flexible interaction 
  model (architecture) between RM

and the Security layer; RM layer does 
  not have to process or communicate

security artefacts such as STRs. All 
  required STRs are found within the 
SOAP message security header.
(2) Is 
  based entirely on the OASIS WSS standard.
(3) Provides a standard pattern 
  which may be re-used for other 
application protocols as it is based upon 
  profiling the STR usage
attribute.
(4) Has no additional impact on 
  SecurityPolicy beyond that found in the 
original 
  proposal.

Thanks,
prateek mishra

  Other than that I corrected a few 2119 terms that were not in
