ODF 1.2 Part 3 CD01-rev08 Contradictory <manifest:algorithm> provisions
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: OFFICE-2721
                 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2721
             Project: OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) TC
          Issue Type: Bug
         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.
            Reporter: Dennis Hamilton


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.
