by David Groep 27 Mar '08

27 Mar '08

Dear all, The OGF e-Science function had yet another look at the grid certificate profile document and of course found a couple of minor textual issues, as listed in the gridForge tracker at https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/artf5963?nav=1 Based on these I updated the document to implement the requested textual changes and procuded revision 0.27, dated March 27, 2008 at: https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/doc13741 (PDF) https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/doc13742 (MS Word) (there called "version 19") I'll push this version back to the editor straight away, hoping that maybe, finally, at least, this documents makes it through the process without further a-do and gets its document number.

Requirements and rationale for Relying Party Defined Namespace Constraints (signing_policy file)
by David Groep 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

Dear all, The rationale for the signing policy file, expressing Relying Party Defined Namespace Constraints, has been documented in a CAOPS-WG draft document. This document is now nearing completion, but as its baseline is now more than two years old, we feel that the list of requirements on the signing policy language expressed in that document may no longer be up to date. As we discussed in the CAOPS WG, we have updated the document and now invite our major relying parties and middleware providers explicitly to comment on this document. Dave (JSPG), Christoph (MWSG) and Frank (Globus), can you forward this as appropriate? The latest document draft is at: https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/doc4857 (PDF version attached) and is really, really, small. We like to complete this document well before the Barcelona OGF in May, so your timely feedback is really, really welcome. And since the doc is small... Thanks, DavidG. PS: We will also ask to "end-user" relying parties via the IGTF and EUGridPMA announcement newsletter. -- David Groep ** National Institute for Nuclear and High Energy Physics, PDP/Grid group ** ** Room: H1.56 Phone: +31 20 5922179, PObox 41882, NL-1009DB Amsterdam NL **
