Re: NEW ISSUE: Round4 negative tests

I decided to draft up a possible solution for this issue - add a new 
section 7 as follows:
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
7. Negative Testcases
As part of this round of testing a set of WS-Policy expressions will be 
provided. Each one will be invalid in some way. Implementations will be 
expected to attempt to Normalize each expression and detect that there is 
an error.  It is beyond the scope of this document to define what action 
each implementation needs to take, however, a successful result will be 
considered to be achieved if some kind of corrective action is taken. Some 
possible actions might include: generation of a fault or attempting to fix 
the expression so it is no longer invalid.

NEW ISSUE: Round4 negative tests







The round4 doc [1] mentions negative tests but doesn't actually says 
what's involved.  We can assume that we're supposed to try to Normalize 
the xml files and that the engine MUST (should?) fail in some way - but it 
would be nice if the doc stated this so that everyone knows what "success" 
means.
