First of all, thanks for revamping this. I'm really looking forward for some common format for writing policies and, personally, I would be very happy to port the Vim and OCaml policies to such a format when there will be one. > Comments appreciated. As a general comment, before seeing an actual XML-like format I would like to see a list of what semantic information a document in such a format should be able to express. E.g. "a set of rules, each of which with a mandatoriness level which is one among MUST/SHOULD/... bla bla together with bla bla". Can you please summarize such information for us? In addition to that, just some tiny nitpicking below. > <section role="PolicyRule"> > <title>Policy Rule Example</title> > > <para role="priority"> > <property>MUST</property> > </para> I find this use of <para> inappropriate. The role is fine, but the one thing above is definitely not a paragraph, so it should not be tagged as such. Unfortunately I'm writing this email offline so I'm unable to check whether docbook has any more appropriate element for this or where else can be but a <property> element, but something better then this should be looked for.
