<h2>Workshop Report Published</h2>

<p>W3C has published a <a href="report.html">report</a> and <a href="agenda.html">full minutes</a>
of the <a href="/2009/policy-ws/">Workshop on Access Control Application Scenarios</a>,
held in Luxembourg in November 2009. Participants from 17 organizations examined the
current limitations of access control, privacy enhancement, distributed handling of
access control, and other challenging use cases.
<a href="http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=xacml">
eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML)</a> was a focus of the Workshop,
though not the exclusive topic of conversation. The report summarizes the major
"takeaways" from the Workshop, related to XACML semantics, <em>sticky policies</em>,
and credentials-based access control.
The <a href="http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/xacml/">OASIS XACML Technical Committee</a>
is expected to take up these topics. W3C's  <a href="http://www.w3.org/Policy/pling/">Policy
Languages Interest Group (PLING)</a> is expected to discuss data handling policies and
the matching and triggering of events in the privacy context were also discussed.
Further discussion about this subject and complex matching using semantic web
technologies will be directed to the <a href="http://www.w3.org/Policy/pling/">
Policy Languages Interest Group (PLING)</a>. </p>

<h2><a id="GoalsAndScope" shape="rect" name="GoalsAndScope">Workshop Goals and
Scope</a></h2>

<p>This workshop brings together worldwide research and user communities to
explore evolving application scenarios for access control technologies, such as
XACML. Results form a number of recent European research projects in the grid,
cloud computing, and privacy areas show overlapping use cases for these
technologies that extend beyond classical intra-enterprise applications. At
this workshop, we will explore commonalities between different application
scenarios, and standardization needs (at W3C and elsewhere) above and beyond
the technology substrate that exists today.</p>

<h3>Audience</h3>

<p>We aim to enable a dialogue within a broad and diverse audience, spanning
practitioners, implementers, and researchers.</p>

<h3><a id="Goal" shape="rect" name="Goal">Workshop Goals</a></h3>

<p>This workshop is more of an explorative nature. W3C looks for projects from
industry and research to come together and expose the semantics they are using
in typical service scenarios like clouds, but also normal backend exchange for
identity management e.g. We hope to discover some common ground between all
those semantics invented and thus lay some ground work for further
formalization of those semantics. This may be profiles of XACML, but also
vocabularies using semantic web technologies or rulesets. </p>

<h3 id="location">Location</h3>

<p>The Workshop will be held in the <a href="http://www.ccrn.lu/">Abbaye de
Neumünster in Luxembourg</a>. The Abbaye is easily accessible via a public
lift from the City center of Luxembourg where a broad variety of Hotels are
available. </p>

<h2>Important Dates</h2>

<p>The <strong>deadline</strong> for the submission of position papers was <strong>moved to 27 October</strong>
