Subject: SimpleSign for estabilishing the authenticity of XRD.
Hi. I have updated the SimpleSign. Now it include an Overview section so that you can find out how this SimpleSign establishes the authenticity of the XRD. By just inspecting the XRD, one can estabilish its authenticity, using SubjectUniqueIdentifier and CanonicalID. #Note: It is different that if one can Trust that entity. It just establishes the authoritative-ness. Also, I have added another potential signature method. #2.4. Problem of #2.3 (File signing) is that it cannot be applied for sequences of XRDs (i.e., XRDS)except for the entire XRDS. #2.4 solves this. In #2.4, the XRD is Base64 encoded and saved as an attribute of XRD, and signature is applied on that string. Downside is that the XRD become approximately 2.3 times bigger. =nat
