RE: http://www.w3.org/TR/xkms2-req

Hi Liam,

Thanks for your review of our Requirements document [1] and your comments
below.

Regarding your suggestion for additional definitions, a definition for both
"Key" and "Key Management" has been added to Section 1 [2].

Regarding your second comment, an XML Key Management protocol will be a
protocol written in XML, for the management of keys.  This is noted in
several requirements. For example, 2.1.2 highlights the construction of
messages and data structures using XML. Section 2.5.4 notes values of keys
that may be used.

We consider this issue resolved. Thanks again for your comments.

Cheers,
Mike

It might be nice if this document defined the terms "key" and
"key management" in its glossary at the start.

Is it for manaement of XML keys, or for management of keys
using XML?  If the former, what is an XML Key?
