xml:id provides a structural identifier for an XML element, not for an individual or other society-level construct I'd associate with privacy concerns. Existing mechanisms for XML element identification don't seem to have required privacy features. Can you provide more detail on how your p3p attribute interacts with xml:id? Are you suggesting that the p3p attribute should go into the xml namespace too? > -----Original Message----- > From: public-xml-id-request@w3.org [mailto:public-xml-id-request@w3.org] > On Behalf Of Rigo Wenning > Sent: Thursday, April 08, 2004 2:47 PM > To: public-xml-id@w3.org > Cc: 'public-p3p-spec'; Lorrie Cranor > Subject: P3P Generic attribute > > Dear all, > > as unique identifiers have the potential to be privacy invasive, > to even create a lot of issues for those who use them, > please look into P3P [1] and EPAL [2]. > > In P3P 1.1 we have established a P3P - attribute to be used > in such cases.
