Re: Proposed change to Framework 3.1

>Use of a policy framework element to contain a nested assertion enables
nested assertions to be distinguished from assertion parameters and
processed appropriately

The major difference between using assertion parameter and a nested
assertion is the intersection ability, the above sentence does not make
sense

I propose the following change to 3.1, "Policy Assertion" in the
latest editor's draft of the policy framework [1]. The change is
shown as a red-line to 3.1, in the attached PDF.

This is proposed as a partial resolution to bug report 3549 [2] and
as a replacement to previous proposals regarding text to clarify the
framework with regards to this issue.

I propose the issue with regards to the normalization procedure in
4.2 (as also noted in the bug report) should be made a separate
issue. This normalization procedure does not appear to explicitly
pass through parameters.

regards, Frederick
