RE: Updated proposal for WS-Policy assertions

What am I missing? Probably I am a bit out of sync, so apologies in
advance for this question. 

What is not clear to me regardless of the decision on opt-in/opt-out is
that the relationship with the wsaw:UsingAddressing. The other aspect is
more easily resolvable. 

I did not see the marker being removed to be proposed. I did not also
see whether the proposed new markers were children (nested assertions)
within the marker. 

This is a very important aspect of assertion design. 

Marc/Dave? Could you clarify where you were heading with respect to the
existing element in Section 3.1?

Is UsingAddressing become an assertion too? BTW, there is no  as stated
to the use of UsingAddressing as an assertion, except modifying the
@wsdl:required attribute . Thus it is very conceivable that the proposed
3 assertions will have to be clarified and used with the
wsaw:UsingAddressing anyway as Anonymous element was trying to attempt.
