Proposal for SignatureIdentifier-structure


Dear Detlef, Thanks for the message and sorry for not reacting before. I essentially agree in the principles that lead your proposal, ie to define mechanisms that allow for identifying signatures in the two group of situations we mentioned in our conf call.... Looking at the specific proposal I would like to make some comments: 1. I agree that the signed properties are worth for identifying signatures when the relationships in dss:VerificationRequest have been lost. We could discuss whether the signing certificate information could be mandatory in that case, so that we identify the signature by its value and its generator.In addition I miss what the vr: prefix stands for? 2. Just making a kind of brainstorming, could we optionally include also the digest of the document where the signature is? in the case of multiple documents and multiple enveloped signatures this would avoid to dig in the bytes of the documents until finding the pointed signature...just computing the digest of the documents we could identify it....Just a first idea that has come into my mind when reading your proposal. 2. As for the attributes, I agree that we should provide also mechanisms for pointing at a signature within a binary document.... Regards Juan Carlos.
