[ggf-ogsa-sec-wg] New specs released: WS-SecurityPolicy, WS-Trust, WS-SecureConversation, WS-Policy, WS-PolicyAttachments, WS-PolicyAssertions



Folks,

 

Six new specs have been released (today, I believe) that are related to our OGSA SEC efforts. These are:

 

[1] WS-SecurityPolicy

[2] WS-Trust

[3] WS-SecureConversation

[4] WS-Policy

[5] WS-PolicyAttachments

[6] WS-PolicyAssertions.

 

The key, of course, is how we see these fitting into our efforts.

 

Many of these documents are co-authored by multiple organizations (e.g., Microsoft, Verisign, IBM, RSA, etc.) See http://msdn.microsoft.com/webservices/understanding/gxa/default.aspx for the Microsoft links to these documents.

 

We need to carefully read these (as a community) and evaluate them. Something to do over the Holidays! :^)
