Next steps for XPath profiles in conjunction with XML Security WG?

Bob and members of WS-RA WG:

The XML Security WG and WS-RA WG met during the TPAC F2F and discussed  
XPath profiling and the possibility of creating a single XPath  
profiles document [1] [2].

The XML Security WG created XMLSec WG ISSUE-152 - Add pratik as author  
to xpath subset document if produced by ws-ra

I'd like to check on the status of the WS-RA XPath subset document and  
also revisit whether we can and should create a single XPath profiles  
document.

We currently have text in our XML Signature 2.0 editors draft [3] and  
Pratik is in the process of revising this document.

This would be a good time to decide whether to complete a single XPath  
profile document and further rationalize the current drafts.

What do you think?

regards, Frederick

Chair XML Security WG
