RE: Target definition
Sounds reasonable.  Keep the rules/policies as passive documents and attribute action to the PDP.

Subject: [xacml] Target definition

 

On the last call, I said that it was too soon to start working on 4.0.  I am holding to that, but have a suggested change for the definition for “target” when the time is right.

 

3.0--

Target 

The set of decision requests, identified by definitions for
resource, subject and action that a 
rule, policy, or policy set is intended to evaluate

 

Proposed-- 

Target

The set of decision requests, identified by definitions for
resource, subject and action that a 
PDP is intended to evaluate according to the applicable rule,
policy, or policy set 

 

Thoughts?
