! This is an implementation of the OASIS XACML 1.0 standard. It supports
the full specification including parsing policies, managing requests and
responses, processing policies against requests, adding new attribute
types and functions, and providing modules for hooking into external
services. This is an OpenSource project started by Sun Microsystems.

+ <p>
+ NOTE: The classes in this project support parsing all the XACML types
+ and support being encoded back into their XML form. At present, this
+ is being done by hand, and with limited functionality. These routines
+ will be useful for people who want to parse policies and requests, or
+ for those who want to build tools that create XACML structures, but
+ they are only being provided as a temporary measure until a more
+ robust system can be introduced. As such, consider all the
+ <code>getInstance</code> and <code>encode</code> methods to be in a
+ state of flux.
