Editorial Issue from David Hull

Description

&gt;ACTION-295 Address the first item in message &gt;http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-policy/2007May/0002.html

I took an action to open an issue to address the first item in David Hull&apos;s message.

David said,
&lt;quote&gt;
The rule for &quot;Empty&quot; states
&lt;wsp:All /&gt; expresses a policy with zero policy assertions. Note that since wsp:Policy is equivalent to wsp:All, &lt;wsp:Policy /&gt; is therefore equivalent to &lt;wsp:All /&gt;, i.e., a policy alternative with zero assertions.

Elsewhere it says that &lt;All/&gt; represents alternatives, not policies, and there is certainly a distinction between an empty policy and an empty alternative.  

Should the first sentence read &quot; ... a policy alternative with zero policy assertions&quot;?
&lt;quote/&gt;

Yes

Justification - editorial

Target - Framework

Proposal

In Section 4.3.3 [1], replace the sentence &quot;&lt;wsp:All /&gt; expresses a policy with zero policy assertions&quot; with &quot;&lt;wsp:All /&gt; expresses a policy alternative with zero policy assertions&quot;.
