Subject: RE: [xacml] condition reference text (item 7)


Title: Message
Colleagues - I have just realized how much work this is going to be.  In addition to the specific changes described by Simon, all the examples are affected and the introductory material, including the class diagram are affected.  This is going to take some time.
 
I would like to see formal acceptance of the proposal as soon as possible, because backtracking doesn't look like an appealing option.
 
Personally, I lament the passing of <Condition>.  The part of <Rule> that complements <Target> is a significant independent concept that deserves its own name.  Anyone who has to explain XACML will have to refer to it.  With the passing of <Condition>, they'll have to talk about "the child <Expression> element of the <Rule> element" or some such.  Global replace may work for the editor, but it is not a very attractive prospect for the reader.
 
Does anyone else feel that this idea needs a name of its own?
 
All the best.  Tim.
