I see a number of separate issues: 1) There is a need to encode attributes within a signature to define the semantics of the signature event 2) There is a need to define the semantics of the attributes There is already a project underway to achieve (2), the ETerms working group of the ICC which is establishing a repository of business terms. At the moment the effort is centered on the issue of constructve notice of a CPS but the interest is considerably broader. The issue of (1) is where the interface between PKCS#7 and XML-Sig needs to be thought out carefully. Attributes defined for one envelope syntax must be reusable in the other. Hence my interest in employing a PKCS#7 detached signature blob in a signed XML message. Phill
