I understand (now and originally, that's why I thought I should say
something about the schemas). I probably should have just kept my mouth
shut. ;-(

I can try. It would probably help if you can point out exactly what the
dealbreaker is, because I guess I didn't exactly understand it up front.
Even in the WS-Trust case. I take it that a right of modification and
redistribution has something to do with it. If there's a specific sentence,
that will help.
Basically, the more ammo you can give me...I can certainly enlist some help,
but the more I know the easier my explanations will be.
