Yes I need to learn more about how the policy implementation works in Tuscany too. Venkat has done the implementation work so far. I also noticed that Ant gave some advice on what to look at first here ( http://www.mail-archive.com/tuscany-dev%40ws.apache.org/msg24210.html) so I'm going to look at that tomorrow. We can compare notes ;-) Simon
