    <thetext>Some P3P elements have human-readable fields to provide further explanations, for 
example via LONG-DESCRIPTION. Consider adding these fields to all P3P elements 
that don&apos;t have them, or identify a set of elements to add them to.</thetext>

    <thetext>We have discussed this on two conference calls.  This could be done for a specific set of 
elements or generically.  It appears that the way the extension mechanism is defined in 
the P3P schema we cannot add such elements in arbitrary places -- for
example, I think we can add them to high-level elements such as
PURPOSE but not as sub-elements of individual PURPOSE elements. There is some 
interest in adding these elements selectively, but also concerns that sites will try to use 
them to gain more wiggle room. We agreed that we need to consider proposals on a 
case-by-case basis. Nobody has raised any specific proposals to date.

This  item will be closed in a few weeks unless someone comes forward with a specific 
proposal for us to consider.</thetext>
