Michael Brauer commented on OFFICE-2721:
----------------------------------------

There is indeed an inconsistency, and the only option is to adapt the schema. EncryptionMethod allows arbitrary child elements. We therefore have to allow these, too.

Dennis: I've taken over the issue to adapt the schema.

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Packaging, Part 3 (Packages), Security
>    Affects Versions: ODF 1.2 CD 05
>         Environment: This issue applies to ODF 1.2 Part 3 CD01-rev08.odt in conjunction with the latest manifest schema.  It applies to the ODF 1.2 draft4 Part 3 approved to become Part 3 of the combined Public Review CD.

> In ODF 1.2 Par 3 CD01-rev08.odt (ODF 1.2 draft4 Part 3), 
> 1. Section 2.1.1(B.3) requires that the META-INF/manifest.xml file conform to the schema provided in Appendix A.
> 2. Section 4.5 <manifest:algorithm> and the schema confirm that <manifest:algorithm> has no elements.
> 3. Section 3.4.1 confirms that OpenDocument Package Consumers and Producers may employ additional algorithms beyond those established as the defaults in section 3.4.2.  Section 4.5 <manifest:algorithm> text stipulates that there may be additional elements as required to support different encryption algorithms as if <manifest:algorithm> were an <EncryptionMethod> element of [xmlenc-core] associated with the provided <manifest:algorithm> manifest:algorithm-name attribute value.
> 4. Although incorporation of elements from [xmlenc-core] is stated, there is no discussion of how namespace considerations apply.
> NOTE: The simplicity or complexity of resolution of this conflict depends on whether or not an alternative full-package encryption methodology is introduced in place of encryptions that deal with the individual Zip contents individually.
