According to WS-SecurityPolicy 1.2, section 7.1, these security policy assertions must be encapsulated by a policy that is nested inside an AlgorithmSuite assertion. The enclosing AlgorithmSuite assertions as well as suitable top-level assertions containing the AlgorithmSuite assertions are missing from example 1-1. The examples in the following chapters build on this first example. Despite extensive research we did not find a policy that is sufficiently simple, can serve as a basis for the other examples, and still is a valid policy. We should still point out that the example given is an incomplete policy that only serves to illustrate how a policy could look like. Justification An example of a policy that claims to display a security policy but in fact violates the constraints of WS-SecurityPolicy causes unnecessary confusion among readers of both specifications. Target Web Services Policy Framework, section 1.2, example 1-1 Proposal Replace "The following example illustrates a security policy expression using assertions defined in WS-SecurityPolicy WS-SecurityPolicy?:" by "The following example illustrates a security policy expression using assertions defined in WS-SecurityPolicy WS-SecurityPolicy? rather than a complete security policy:" 11860 1 ritzmann 2006-09-19 15:13:35 +0000 The proposal text got slightly skewed. Here is a cleaned up version: Proposal Replace "The following example illustrates a security policy expression using assertions defined in WS-SecurityPolicy [WS-SecurityPolicy]:" by "The following example illustrates a security policy expression using assertions defined in WS-SecurityPolicy [WS-SecurityPolicy] rather than a complete security policy:" 11887 2 ritzmann 2006-09-20 11:22:17 +0000 Follow up by Tony Nadalin: Instead for changing the wording I suggest the following using the following example 01) <wsp:Policy xmlns:sp="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/07/securitypolicy" xmlns:wsp="http://www.w3.org/@@@@/@@/policy" > (02) <wsp:ExactlyOne> (03) <wsp:All> (04) <sp:SignedParts> <sp:Body /> </sp:SignedParts> (05) </wsp:All> (06) <wsp:All> (07) <sp:EncryptedParts> <sp:Body /> </sp:EncryptedParts> (08) </wsp:All> (09) </wsp:ExactlyOne> (10) </wsp:Policy> 12027 3 ritzmann 2006-09-26 11:33:10 +0000 Comment by Dan Roth: This looks good to me. I suggested we assign this one over to the editors. 12111 4 Paul.Cotton 2006-09-27 18:17:04 +0000 Resolved at Sep 27 meeting: http://www.w3.org/2006/09/27-ws-policy-minutes.html Adopted Tony's example in http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3753#c2 and moved existing example 1-1 to later section where it is referenced.
