equalsJeffH has just labeled an issue for 
https://github.com/w3c/webauthn as "type:editorial":

== differentiate assertion signatures and attestation signatures ==
presently the spec uses the unadorned term "signature" in ~80+ places.
  We have two overall types of signatures -- aka 'signed objects' -- 
attestations in the makeCredential() flow, and assertions in the 
getAssertion() flow.  Perhaps we should name these two different 
signature types "assertion signature" and "attestation signature"
