Tom's comments to Ws-Trust specification
by David Chadwick 15 Sep '08

15 Sep '08

Dear WG the attached Word document with track changes was submitted to me by Tom Scavo whilst the OGF web site was experiencing difficulties, and so it was not submitted via the normal public comment mechanism. However, when I tried to do this today, since there is no facility for adding attachments to public comments, the comment simply says that the attachment will be posted to the OGSA-Authz mailing list via this email. regards David -- ***************************************************************** David W.

Comment on Use of SAML to retrieve Authorization Credentials
by David Chadwick 15 Sep '08

15 Sep '08

Dear WG one of the issues with the third party query mode, is how does the AA know that the user has issued consent for his attributes to be retrieved by the grid PEP. I propose that we insert the Consent parameter (see Section 3.2.1 and 8.4 of SAML Core) into the third party query with a value of Implicit. The fact that the user has initiated the grid job request, causing the PEP to pull his attributes, implies that he wants his attributes to be retrieved so that his job can run (otherwise he would get an authorisation failure message response). It therefore seems perfectly reasonable for the PEP to insert the Implicit Consent parameter into the request to the AA regards David -- ***************************************************************** David W.

I've attached some comments to the document entitled "Use of WS-TRUST and SAML to access a CVS" (GWD-R-P), which I believe is still in its Public Review period. I embedded the comments directly into the Word doc, which I hope is okay. Tom Scavo NCSA
