III. Issues
Steven:
Markup v4.0 docs have begun. I have pasted the simple bitmap files for now. Cyril has
begun exploring various technologies to develop these diagrams semantically.
Next up will be to dive into replacing the Target framework with conditional mechanics...
which opens up the conversation of possibly redefining the relationship between Targets,
Conditions and Rules. My current thinking is that we keep both Target and Condition, both
have same structure but, Condition can only exist in a Rule and Target only exists in
a Policy.
Combining Algorithms have been coalesced into a single structure. The Only One Applicable
Combining Algorithm has some issues that make it unique (e.g. doesn't apply to Rules)
and unwieldy. I suggest we remove this from v4.0.
Sections 5 & 7 assumes XML is the only XACML syntax used for XACML. This creates issues
if we are going to pursue JSON and/or YAML syntax in version 4.0. Perhaps we can address
this with generic elements of each syntactic structure. A non-normative examples could
help demonstrate this. Also, it may make sense to merge these two sections. I will
explore using an example to create a description using the merged approach.
