This document specifies a set of common message policy assertions that can be specified within a policy.
By using the XML, SOAP, and WSDL extensibility models, the WS* specifications are designed to be composed with each other to provide a rich Web services environment. WS-PolicyAssertions by itself does not provide a negotiation solution for Web services. WS-PolicyAssertions is a building block that is used in conjunction with other Web service and application-specific protocols to accommodate a wide variety of policy exchange models.
