Re: [VoT] Clause 7 edgy on scope? (RE: Vectors of Trust I-D)

[Justin Richer <[e-mail]>]

Colin, that’s a great question, because I’m honestly not sure what the answer is yet. I think that the vectors only make sense in the context of some kind of trust framework setup, but that sometimes those policies will be hard-coded at configuration time and won’t need to be dynamically bound or discovered. That said, I think the real value of this is going to be cross-domain where an RP could subscribe to (and understand) multiple trust marks and be able to validate them at runtime. Still, that piece might be separable enough, and perhaps substantive enough, to be its own draft. 

That said, I figured I’d write it down down and figure out where it’s actually supposed to go later. :)
