I'm not quite sure how these two versions fit together. Does 1.1 enhances 1.0? 
Are they two different ways of accomplishing the same tasks?

If I wanted to implement the most basic of WSS, how would I go about doing 
this? Is it too much to ask for an explain here, instead of directing me to a 
tutorial. I've read many tutorials, but the don't seem to given a thorough 
enough explanation of what each tag and variable name does. 

For example...

Looking at the Configuration tags at 
http://ws.apache.org/rampart/rampartconfig-guide.html , I would greatly 
appreciate to have an example explaining what each tag does and every 
possibility that can be used in a tag. The table seems incomplete.

<encryptionCypto>
    ....crypto element ......[What are all the possibilities that can be placed 
here?]
    .........................[What will happen if I just put in a random word?]
</encryptionCypto>

If I wanted basic WSS, could I ignore creating a Policy completely?

 
By "basic", I guess I mean, whatever is used in the samples given with the 
distribution for now (i.e. UsernameToken, Timestamp, Signature, Encryption).


If you can help me, I am ever grateful. Thank you!


P.S. This might sound stupid, but what is the difference between a user and an 
encryption user? Please do no quote the table, that doesn't help me understand 
the difference any better. I guess I'm trying to ask how each is used 
concerning the whole "application of WSS" process. (Such an explanation is 
actually what I am seeking for the whole WSS with Rampart in general.)

P.P.S. If it is needed, I could try to send a directory hierarchy, code files 
(as or as not attachments), and a software/application list.
