ACL request
I'd like to be able to write ACL entries that match any subject.
SDSI 1 used the reserved name ALL! for this. What I'd like to
see in SDSI/SPKI 2 is this replacement text in the structure draft:
6.1 <acl>
<acl>:: "(" "acl" <version>? <acl-entry>* ")" ;
<acl-entry>:: "(" "entry" <acl-subj> <deleg>? <tag> <valid>?
<comment>? ")" ;
<acl-subj>:: <subj-obj> | "all"
So, "all" isn't a reserved name, but is instead a special subject
that can be used only on ACLs.
How's that sound?
