    Subject: [xacml] Functions Document 0.10


    
    Greetings,
    
    I thought I would put an updated version of 0.9 as per some revisions
    discussed on the concall.  So, here we are at 0.10.
    
    The document is complete!
    
    I checked out specifications for all of date time arithmetic and
    comparison functions, as well as the binary representation equality
    functions. And I have incorporated with some editorial modifications,
    Anne's specifications for x500Name-match and rfc822Name-match. THANKS
    ANNE!
    
    I also made a couple other changes. given that we changed our terminology
    to "bag" instead of "seqeuence". I changed the names of a couple of
    functions:
    
    <type>-member-of   to   <type>-is-in
    
    as "member-of" is really terminology for a "set", and the connotation of
    being "in" the bag flows nicely.
    
    I also changed the following:
    
    <type>-length      to   <type>-bag-size
    
    as "length" is really terminology for sequences. "length" of a bag doesn't
    flow nicely. Also, there may be confusion between "length" as it is used
    to describe the length of representations in the XML Schema document we
    refer to for data types. I used the name "bag-size" instead of "size"
    because names like "string-size" might be misleading, but
    "string-bag-size" would not.
    
    Cheers,
    -Polar
