Hi Steven, exactly - I just want to find out if we can agree on classic VOMS & SAML VOMS "attribute packages" or if we have to support a third "attribute package" maybe coming out of the [Shib*,GridShib,ShibGrid] field. They are all slightly different "attribute packages". Once we found that out - we going after the question how the packages are presented to the services.

...

I think standardization of the Classic AC VOMS interface is out of scope while the standardization of the SAML-based VOMS interface is done by SAML.

I'd agree - just wanted to check!

...

But we should state in the document both as examples of retrieving attributes to get the profile more clear.

They are both valid scenarios... surely we only need to profile the attributes and how they are packaged and presented to the service? Or am I missing something?

Steven
