    Subject: examples in specification


    
    [With everyone at the F2F I don't expect a quick response, but I figured
     that if things are getting slow, this will give you something to
     discuss <g>]
    
    I've spent the better part of this morning trying to explain how
    Obligations work. The question came up because of the example in section
    4.2.4.3 (Rule 3). In this example, AttributeAssignments contain
    AttributeSelectors and AttributeDesignators. While this isn't illegal,
    the example implies something about the specification that isn't true
    (ie, that the PDP will interpret the contents of assignments), at least
    as I read the specification.
    
    This isn't the first example that has caused confusion. I know all work
    items were supposed to be submitted before the F2F, but I would like to
    propose that we review & correct all examples before the 2.0 release. I
    don't think this is a work item so much as a natural requirement of
    releasing a major-version revision of a specification, but I haven't
    heard any discussion on the topic. Thoughts?
