I'm forwarding a slightly edited version of an e-mail I have received from Patrick Petit, formerly of Sun, now running a start up in Grenoble, that includes a substantive comment on the Use Cases document. === begins === I have reviewed your document "POWDER Use Cases and Requirements". While reading, I noticed that there may be one use case of importance that may be missing. You are certainly aware of Microsoft's new move in the identity management space called CardSpace. I have the intuition it will make a big hit and may change the child protection landscape on the web. The project aims to give users an info-card selector by witch they can assert claims about their identity or the identity of their dependents (i.e. managed Cardspace). So, it seems to me that it would be interesting to include a POWDER use case where the site has established an access control policy and that the policy is enforced by access control logic that is consistent with the site's labeling attributes. For example, a site with adult content would deny access to users presenting an info-card asserting the user hasn't come of age or is explicitly denied access to sites with labeling attributes x,y,z. === ends ===
