    Hi Monica.
    
    Great that you are attending the meeting, that will give us the oppotunity
    to fix some outstanding questions. My current questions/concerns are:
    
    - will our role concept become obsolete in the near future? Will there be
    WS standards that handle role transfer/mapping directly inside the SOAP
    stack?
    - is what we define a "role" really a role from a security standpoint or
    rather a delegated user identity? Maybe the correct approach would be to
    let WS security send a couple of user identities rather than inventing our
    own role concept. Is this possible in WS-Security? Would it be the correct
    approach
    - does WS-Security define user identity mapping? If not how is the transfer
    of user identity supposed to work? Will there be an upcoming standard? Is
    the user identiy programmatically accessible? When will that be
    incorporated in standard SOAP stacks (AXIS, .NET)?
    
    - the basic question is: should be define security directly in our protocol
    at all or will WS-security and forthcoming standards handle this problem.
    
    Best regards
    Carsten Leue

    I hope to be attending the upcoming WS-Security opening TC next week
    from 4-5 September 2002 in Redwood City. As this related standards
    development complements or affects our work, I am asking if you have
    general questions or inputs?  I could be more focused in providing any
    feedback for the benefit of the WSRP-WSIA efforts.
    
    Thank you.
