The xsd:string restriction in <AttributeValue> element seems to mean that only exact string matches to values or returned attributes are possible, ie. no regex. This is a point made in the section on Attibute configuration on the data type of AttributeValue. It would be nice to have support for regular expressesion matches so that patterns could be used for attribute matches. For example, instead of having to list "member@voname", "owner@voname", and "admin@voname" in the AttributeValue list, being able to like "*@voname" would save some typing. If there are more appropriate ways to achieve this, adding an example to the documentation would be helpful. For reference see point "3" in this section: http://gridshib.globus.org/docs/gridshib-gt-0.5.1/admin-index.html#attr-acl-file-semantics Thanks.
