Multisignature individual report: more usage of ValidDetail/InvalidDetailelements

[Juan Carlos Cruellas <cruellas@ac.upc.edu>]

Dear Detlef,

After reading again the draft profile, I would like to make a more 
general comment than those that I did before.

I think that the draft could make a better use of structures specified 
in the core for providing details of the processing of the signature, 
and yet keep most of the structures defined in the draft.

Very briefly, I think that we should use the elements dss:InvalidDetail, 
dss:ValidDetail or dss:IndeterminateDetail for:

1. Identifying the element on which the report is providing details
2. Providing additional information on that element.

I have created a page in the wiki with three examples showing an 
individual report on a signature that is OK, another reporting on a 
signature that has problems with the signature algorithm and another 
reporting on a signature with a revoked certificate as reported in the 
corresponding CRL. You will find it at:

http://wiki.oasis-open.org/dss-x/MultiSignatureVerificationReportsProfile

I think that almost all the structures that you have defined for 
reporting would remain the same, but the usage of the 
ValidDetail/InvalidDetail would keep it more aligned with the core.

Regards

Juan Carlos.
