Subject: Re: [regrep] Vote on version 2.03 - ACTION ITEM
Joel,
V2.1 is intended to be a bug fix release and not for arbitrary changes to the spec. We have required digital signatures on payloads since the earliest versions of the specs. This was not objected to by anyone in V1.0 or V2.0. Making any changes here would be major and I would advice strongly against it. --

From a practical point, I may choose to make some things that I publish, purely public and dsig just simply is not required. I want to be able to choose what I sign. imho Signing entries should be optional. It has been suggested (by others) that the first two might be reconsidered in the V3 timeframe.Joel |
