RE: [provision] FW: SPMLv2 core and DSML profile - pstc-spml2-dsml-profile-os.pdf

Looking at this further, the discrepancy is between normative definitions in the core specification and non-normative examples in the DSML Profile. These should be reconciled in the errata by making the DSML Profile examples match the normative definitions.

Here is a comment from the list we should look at.

Hello,

We are starting to implement a SPMLv2 provider, which supports the DSML profile. When trying to build the test vectors we encountered what we consider as incompatibilities between the DSML profile and the SPMLv2 core specification.

The main issue are the <pso> elements. In most of the cases they are missing in the DSML profile. For our implementation we decided to follow the SPMLv2 core lines. 

Here some samples (namespaces omitted for brevity):

AddResponse
===========

Spml core
---------
<addResponse status="success">
	<pso>
		<psoID ID="cn=xxx"/>
	</pso>
</addResponse>

DSML profile
------------
<addResponse status="spml:success">
	<psoId ID="CN=xxx"/>
	<data>
		<dsml:attr name="CN">

ModifyResponse
=============
Spml core
---------
<modifyResponse>
	<pso>
		<psoID ID="xxx"/>
		<data>
			<dsml:attr name="name">
				<dsml:value>RoleXYZ</dsml:value>
			</dsml:attr>

Dsml profile
------------
<modifyResponse status="spml:success">
	<psoId ID="CN=Jane Doe,OU=accounting,DC=acme.com" targetID="acme.com"/>
</modifyResponse>

Lookup Response
===============

Spml core
---------
<lookupResponse requestID="125" status="success">
	<pso>
		<psoID ID="2244" targetID="target2"/>
		<data>
			<dsml:attr ... />
			
Dsml Profile
------------
<lookupResponse status="spml:success">
	<psoId ID="CN=John Doe,OU=accounting,DC=acme.com" targetID="acme.com"/>
	<data>
		<dsml:attr name="CN" .../>

With best regards
