Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Updated: (OFFICE-3030) Public Comment:Comments on Digital Signatures in ODF 1.2 Part 3



     [ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-3030?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Michael Brauer updated OFFICE-3030:
-----------------------------------

    Resolution: 
There are 3 issues at question here:

1) Why don't we use the XMLDSig 1.1 spec instead of 1.0?

1.1 is in draft form, and a published specification shall not depend on a draft.
Also, 1.1 is a breaking change to 1.0 - a 1.1 parser won't parse a 1.1 signature, and there are 1.0 elements that are no longer considered valid. When 1.1 moves out of draft, it would be a substantial change.

2) Why don't we use XML signature properties?

 XML signature properties is in draft form, and a published specification shall not depend on a draft.
In addition, there is no need for anything but the signing time, and that's covered by XAdES already. There's also nothing preventing an implementer from using these extensions if they liked - it wouldn't break an existing parser.

3) Why not use the RELAX NG schemas?
The RNG schemas are in draft form, and a published specification shall not depend on a draft.

All 3 suggestion may be reconsidered for a future ODF version when the mentioned specifications have been approved.

Dennis: I've copied David's comments (to which I fully agree) and mine to the resolution and set this issue to ODF-Next
