RE: 3459 Proposed change to Framework 3.1

[Added issue number to the subject line]

> The attributes property is an assertion parameter.

In the XML representation, assertion parameters may be represented as
child XML elements or attributes of an assertion. [attributes] property
may contain zero or more assertion parameters.

> The children property may contain assertion 
> parameters and/or nested assertions.

This doesn't sound right. Assertion/wsp:Policy is a nested policy
expression [1] (it is not an assertion or a nested assertion).

On the archive, there are three proposals [2][3][4] to fix issue 3459. A
description on what we are trying to clarify would be helpful.

Subject: Proposed change to Framework 3.1

I propose the following change to 3.1, "Policy Assertion" in the  
latest editor's draft of the policy framework [1]. The change is  
shown as a red-line to 3.1, in the attached PDF.

This is proposed as a partial resolution to bug report 3549 [2] and  
as a replacement to previous proposals regarding text to clarify the  
framework with regards to this issue.

I propose the issue with regards to the normalization procedure in  
4.2 (as also noted in the bug report) should be made a separate  
issue. This normalization procedure does not appear to explicitly  
pass through parameters.

regards, Frederick
