RE: [office] DSIG proposal - FYI - Root Element

["Dennis E. Hamilton" <dennis.hamilton@acm.org>]

Bob, I misunderstood the FYI note about simplification of the ODF DSIG
proposal.  

I didn't realize the schema for <document-signatures
xmlns="http://openoffice.org/2004/documentsignatures";> (and logical
equivalents) was still being proposed.  I will re-examine on that basis.

 - Dennis 

PS: I apologize for missing sny discussion of this proposal on the call.
Alarm-clock pilot error.

Root element is actually:
<document-signatures xmlns="http://openoffice.org/2004/documentsignatures";>

which in turn contains ds:Signature children.  See section 2.4 of part
3 (packaging).  What is not specified is the mimetype of the
signatures file.  I suppose that should be done.
