http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=4263

           Summary: Add text to ignorable discussion on passing ignorable
                    property of assertion to domain specific processing
           Product: WS-Policy
           Version: FPWD
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Primer
        AssignedTo: fsasaki@w3.org
        ReportedBy: frederick.hirsch@nokia.com

The new text added to primer on ignorable (as in issue 4041 and noted in
resolution  http://www.w3.org/2007/01/18-ws-policy-irc#T22-08-44-1) should
include explanation that domain specific processing should be aware of
ignorable marking of assertion. (Thread about proposal for 4041 at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-policy/2007Jan/0187.html )

Proposal:

Add  following text proposed to be added at end of new section 3.4.1 Strict and
Lax Policy Intersection 

"Domain specific processing should be made aware of whether assertions it is
processing were marked as ignorable since that may impact domain specific
processing."

[Note that this proposal is different from the following text which was removed
from the original proposal for 4041

"When domain specific processing is to be performed in strict mode, it is up to
that domain specific processing to interpret the Ignorable rattribute. In lax
mode it is not relevant since ignorable assertions are not passed to the domain
specific processing step of the intersection algorithm."]
