This version is a major overhaul, where all the meta-comments and general pondering have been put in foot notes, and only the actual guideline text and the SHOULDs and MUSTs are in-line. The actual recommendations have not changed, but it should be clearer to read.
Thanks for making such an excellent document; I have many small comments & few fairly important ones perhaps. http://www.lbl.gov/~mike/draft-ggf-certificate-profile-v0_14-mwh.doc I am not sure about those footnotes, is your intention to work on them & incorporate them into the text body, delete them completely, or leave them as-is? It seems clear that one of the constraints operating on us is the need to chase various string matching & manipulating habits and features of the grid middleware. I think this should be stated in the first section, so the reader can get this idea as soon as possible. I don't really get the first paragraph of section 1 either. Is that really true & do we need to say it? Thanks, ==mwh
