I still do not get the concept of a Root Policy set.
Of what purpose would this serve in the standard?
It might serve as a product instruction manual which is a single monolithic PDP saying that there is one policy which is the root of that PDP, which is either a PolicySet or Policy.
If you are pulling out relavant policies out of an LDAP server (only for example), then where is this "root"?

I think the idea of more defaults is a good one and I am forwarding this to the TC list.
However, based on past discussions, I believe the TC would be more likely to select "deny-overrides" as the default.

Name: Ludwig Seitz Title: PhD Researcher Organization: Security, Policy and Trust Laboratory, SICS, Sweden Regarding Specification: XACML
Hello all, I wanted to suggest some points for the XACML standard with the goal
of
simplifying XACML Policies (by reducing their verboseness).
1. Define a default policy/rule combining algorithm, e.g. "permit- overrides", if the attribute PolicyCombiningAlgId/RuleCombiningAlgId
is
missing from a PolicySet/Policy tag.
2. Define "string-equal" as default MatchId attribute in SubjectMatch, ResourceMatch and ActionMatch tags.
3. Define "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string" as default
DataType
attribute in AttributeValue tags.
4. Define "urn:oasis:names:tc:xacml:1.0:subject:subject-id"/ "urn:oasis:names:tc:xacml:1.0:resource:resource-id"/ "urn:oasis:names:tc:xacml:1.0:action:action-id" as default values for the AttributeId attribute of SubjectAttributeDesignator/ ResourceAttributeDesignator/ ActionAttributeDesignator
Regards,
Ludwig Seitz
