RE: XML Key Management Service comment

Hi Jon,

Thanks for taking the time to look at our Requirements document [1] and
provide your feedback.

As you note in your message, it does not appear that your comment converts
into an additional or modified requirement.  In particular, the requirements
document does not specify server implementation technology.  Therefore, no
additional requirement has been added to the latest version of the
Requirements [2], and this issue is considered resolved.

Cheers,
Mike

I noticed that your charter said that DOM implementation issues was out of 
scope for you document.  I have concerns here, since one of the issues in 
the User Agent working group is dealing with is access to secure documents 
for alternative rendering.  Ideally this would be a lot easier if there was 
an interoperable way for security information to transmitted through the 
DOM.  UAAG has a requirement to export the DOM to assistive technologies 
for them to provide alternative renderings of alternative controls.

I think that a standard dom implementation for people to gain access to 
content in a secure way is important for accessibility.  I am not sure how 
this translates into your requirements document.

Jon
