It would be responsible for code - the current xml-security stuff that
sits within the XML project/federation. And it would look to start new
things as well - with an absolute intent to move them to TLP when
necessary (i.e. when it became clear the Santuario PMC did not have
direct oversite).
I know we are trying not to create umbrella projects - I'm trying to
walk a middle ground to see if we can make something like this work with
a community that fosters this area. It's a bit of a community
experiment as well as a technical one.
