It depend on the way you sign, either you sign individually blocks or you sign a subset of the blocks and the signing block can record the ordering. So you still don't need to have a fixed order. If ordering has to be done in the processing, there should be a surrounding block handling the processing (such block can also add things to process rollbacks). -- Yves Lafon - W3C "Baroula que barouleras, au tiéu toujou t'entourneras."
