Subject: SwA Profile Comments
Frederick, Here are some more comments from our engineers on the latest SwA Profile Draft: 1) Insignificant whitespace in MIME headers should probably be stripped rather than compressed during canonicalization. The current specification allows either one or zero space character to appear between every header token. This allows for many different representations of one header. Defining a canonical format that uses zero insignificant spaces would remove this ambiguity. 2) MIME header parameters should probably be ordered alphabetically during canonicalization, similar to attributes in XML canonicalization. 3) The signature example is missing critical elements. SignedInfo, CanonicalizationMethod, SignatureMethod, and SignatureValue are all missing. Dana S. Kaufman VP of Product Management Forum Systems, Inc.
