[wss] Motion concerning interoperability agreement format

Title: Motion concerning interoperability agreement format

Colleagues - Here is one motion that we will vote on during today's meeting in relation to the discussions on QoP, security policy and agreements for interoperability of WS-Security implementations.

Motion: "The Web-services security technical committee resolves to identify and define within its specification(s) security policy and policy negotiation procedures to support interoperable use of the security mechanisms defined by the technical committee, especially in support of any interoperability demonstrations that the technical committee may advocate."

This work is within the scope of the TC's charter:

According to numbered item 2 in the charter, the TC's specification will reflect additional functionality within the scope of the TC charter, and the scope of the TC includes support of security mechanisms.  The format of interoperability agreements is an essential support to the implementation of the security mechanisms defined by the TC.

All the best.  Tim.
