Some sundry corrections. I realised that most of the cases of confusion could be eliminated by changing MAY to might. So might does make right after all! issue_9191 Clarification/ Joseph Reagle/ Keyword Audit/ [ List <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xkms/2002Sep/0024.html> email - 09/24/2002] [Part <http://www.w3.org/2001/XKMS/Drafts/XKMS/xkms-issues-list.html#Part_I-2002-0 8-01> I - 2002/08/01] [64] The following ResultMajor codes are defined: The "must" in the table should probably be MUST. <http://www.w3.org/2001/XKMS/Drafts/XKMS/xkms-issues-list.html#Part_I-2002-0 8-01> (Related: Issue <file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/mjust/Desktop/XKMS%20Issues%20List%20 -%20Oct%207,%202002.htm#issue-18> 18) Done with some rewording to indicate the scope of the MUST issue_9393 Clarification/ Joseph Reagle/ Keyword Audit/ [ List <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xkms/2002Sep/0024.html> email - 09/24/2002] [Part <http://www.w3.org/2001/XKMS/Drafts/XKMS/xkms-issues-list.html#Part_I-2002-0 8-01> I - 2002/08/01] [91] For example a Locate Service MAY act as an aggregator of public key related information obtained from a variety of sources without performing any checks to determine whether specific information is current or establishing any formal trust policy. Such a service would correspond to the role of a directory in a traditional PKI. A Validate service MAY provide a service that validates key information presented to it but does not provide aggregation services. I think I would lowercase these MAYs. <http://www.w3.org/2001/XKMS/Drafts/XKMS/xkms-issues-list.html#Part_I-2002-0 8-01> (Related: Issue <file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/mjust/Desktop/XKMS%20Issues%20List%20 -%20Oct%207,%202002.htm#issue-18> 18) Used might instead to avoid confusion issue_9494 Clarification/ Joseph Reagle/ Keyword Audit/ [ List <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xkms/2002Sep/0024.html> email - 09/24/2002] [Part <http://www.w3.org/2001/XKMS/Drafts/XKMS/xkms-issues-list.html#Part_I-2002-0 8-01> I - 2002/08/01] [202] X-KRSS specifies a mechanism for authenticating requests that is independent of any authentication mechanism provided by the message security binding. By its nature the X-KRSS protocol must support requests from parties who have yet to register their credentials or who have impaired credentials which are to be revoked. I think this "must" should be MUST. <http://www.w3.org/2001/XKMS/Drafts/XKMS/xkms-issues-list.html#Part_I-2002-0 8-01> (Related: Issue <file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/mjust/Desktop/XKMS%20Issues%20List%20 -%20Oct%207,%202002.htm#issue-18> 18) Reworded as I don't think the MUST is actually a protocol MUST it is a design MUST issue_9797 Clarification/ Joseph Reagle/ Keyword Audit/ [ List <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xkms/2002Sep/0024.html> email - 09/24/2002] [Part <http://www.w3.org/2001/XKMS/Drafts/XKMS/xkms-issues-list.html#Part_I-2002-0 8-01> I - 2002/08/01] [280] Depending on the implementation and application a key recovery operation MAY involve an unacceptable loss of confidence in the security of a private key component. This may lead to the possibility of repudiation of a signed document or of accountability in the case of an encrypted document. The first may should be lower case. <http://www.w3.org/2001/XKMS/Drafts/XKMS/xkms-issues-list.html#Part_I-2002-0 8-01> (Related: Issue <file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/mjust/Desktop/XKMS%20Issues%20List%20 -%20Oct%207,%202002.htm#issue-18> 18) made into a might
