RE: [soa-rm-ra] comments on 20090408 trust
Agreed that the is no "right" answer to "how much risk 
there is?"  It's difficult to know what you don't 
know.

Bob,

If risk is defined as a perception, then "perceived risk" is somewhat 
redundant although an restatement that may be useful.  I believe this is 
consistent with your assertion that risk is an unknown.  One can try to 
quantify risk, but there is no way to identify a "right" answer.

Frank,

I 
  was going through the latest trust write-up with the intent 
  of
incorporating some of the UML models I proposed but I notice we 
  still
have some significant disconnects.  The attached has my major 
  comments.

A major point I strongly advocate is we connect the 
  discussion through
the idea of real world effects and avoid introducing 
  other undefined
terms when RWE can suffice.  This grounds us back in 
  the RM.

Lots of other specifics.

Ken
