We just went through a fairly contentious telecon for WS-Security that decided to remove all QNAME's from the WSSE spec, replacing them with URI's. The usual arguments against them took place; the main counter- balance against removing them was (unstated) installed base. BTW, the recent TAG finding was taken as a strong argument against QNAME's in content. /r$ -- Rich Salz Chief Security Architect DataPower Technology http://www.datapower.com XS40 XML Security Gateway http://www.datapower.com/products/xs40.html XML Security Overview http://www.datapower.com/xmldev/xmlsecurity.html ----------------------------------------------------------------- The xml-dev list is sponsored by XML.org <http://www.xml.org>, an initiative of OASIS <http://www.oasis-open.org> The list archives are at http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/ To subscribe or unsubscribe from this list use the subscription manager: <http://lists.xml.org/ob/adm.pl>
