Aldo and Diego,


The section 4.1 of your draft has this expression:

Our capabilities are defined by a 4-tuple:
(Ac; Cc; RSc; Dc) [ (AC; CC; RSC; DC)= K

Is it intentional to have "[" without the matching one "]"?

What is the relationship between "Ac" and "AC"? are they the same?

If a NSF supports more actions than the simple "permit" or "deny" (e.g. "redirect", "log", "alert", etc), will then be listed in "AC" or "Ac"?

Thanks, Linda
