Re: [ietf-provreg] legal entity vs individual person
Ed, I don't know how to compare one of these: <contact:disclose flag=N><t1><t2>...<tn></contact:disclose> and one of these: <greeting>...<dcp><T1><T2>...<TN></dcp></greeting> If not both can exist at any time, I don't care that I don't know how to compare little-t thingees and BIG-T thingees. All Andy's solved is flag is usefully valued in the range {0, 1, 2}. That gets personal and impersonal data client-side policed distinctly, it does not make the reconcilliation with the server-side policy any easier. > Insinuating that the text doesn't work, as you do above, is not > helping anyone at all. Showing how the text doesn't work *is* > helpful - if that is done, we can fix it. We can't fix unhappiness, > we can fix text. Can I make it any clearer? I don't know the answer, and my preferred solution, since this doesn't bother a soul other than myself, is to treat the client-side stuff as broken by definition, and vastly too expensive to fix. Someone that cares can fix it. Or not. Eric
