Dear all, I would like to raise an issue on policy representation the current text for Policies reads: An optional member named policy may be provided with a string value containing a URI-reference to a human-readable document that describes the tracking policy for this site. The content of such a policy document is beyond the scope of this protocol and only supplemental to what is described by this machine-readable tracking status representation. I suggest the following wording: An optional member named policy may be provided with a string value containing a URI-reference to a P3P Policy File[1] that describes the tracking policy for this site. The content of such a policy document is beyond the scope of this protocol and only supplemental to what is described by this machine-readable tracking status representation. 1.http://www.w3.org/TR/P3P11/#P3P_markup Rationale: By linking to a P3P Policy file, the <Policies> Element therein contains an attribute called "discuri" that indicates the location of the human readable policy. This would allow a site to declare a policy in a machine readable form and in a human readable form. The link to the Specification makes clear that both can not contradict. Best, Rigo
