Hello everybody,
I am taking a look at STP features, in
particular the policy stuff, and suddenly began wondering if STP was
using some sort of meta-model for policies in the same spirit as it uses
the intermediate metamodel.
It may be interesting to model policies instead of just editing (WS-)
policy documents. WS-Policy documents (and perhaps some other policy
description mechanisms) can then be generated from such policy models.
This could make the policy framework future proof, if a different
standard arises for describing policies.
I found a discussion on "Policy Data Model" in
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Policy_Framework_in_STP which shares this idea,
but no further documentation. It is not clear if a decision has been
made on this issue, but seems that for now xml instances of WS-Policy is
the only policy description supported. Is such data model a fact, a
future plan, or neither?, and in the case it is, is there any
documentation describing it?.
Thank you all in advance,
Juan Pedro
