Hi Andrew. I hope interop & SNIA went well (I heard some positive feedback on the interop, but SNIA is outside my working set <g>).
I am the sole author of PasswordPolicyAndValidation.pdf - and gather you are interested in the entire set of tables & information in it being inserted into the appropriate documents. So, I will proceed to file document change requests as applicable, using PasswordPolicyAndValidation.pdf as the source for change proposals. I wish I could say that the pdf will serve as a model - but I do know there is an ongoing conversation here about top-down versus bottom-up documentation style & content. I recognize much of the AD documentation is bottom-up, which doesn't provide the most straightforward route to an implementation... Hence that other document I sent a (very) rough copy of a while back ([SCENARIO_DOMAIN_TRUST].pdf - which currently deconstructs most of the wired operations & some of data flow for trusts). As I noted in a separate email, I expect to be able to provide you with the latest copy soon. How much of that doc will end up on other forthcoming items under development is currently a big unknown.

I'm so sorry I didn't get back to you. As I said to everyone else (at the interop and SNIA events), I just wish the rest of the documentation was so clear and provided such a useful mapping. Very well done! Now, what is the long-term status of this document, and how can we make it a modal for other protocols?
