http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=4583

           Summary: Duplicate assertions in an alternative
           Product: WS-Policy
           Version: CR
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Framework

The framework document indicates that duplicate instances of an assertion type
are allowed in a policy alternative.  During yesterday's and today's discussion
a number of questions arose about this situation.

1. Should duplicate instances of the same type be allowed in a policy
alternative before and after intersection.
2. Do we need to add guidance re. removing duplicate assertions from an
alternative.
2. What is the default semantic re. the resulting behavior if there is more
than one instance of an assertion in an alternative.
