   PR #1156

   Ege: subprotocol is an enum of the possible subprotocols

   (reviewing problems in PR)

   McCool: questions about use of "rel"

   Ege: link validation is complicated due to the icon link type

   Ege: it is correct

   McCool: try to reduce lines where the brackets can be on one
   line

   Koster: processors seem to always expand the brackets

   McCool: (line by line review of the diff)

   Mizushima: there is a problem on line 2

   McCool: (fixed)

   McCool: any objections to merging?

   McCool: OK

    PR #1151

   <kaz> [11]PR 1151 - WIP: TD Signatures

     [11] https://github.com/w3c/wot-thing-description/pull/1151


   McCool: signatures, PR #1151

   McCool: still some things yet to do

   McCool: added support for XML signatures that have signatures
   for sub-sections of the document

   McCool: it creates a digest and signs individual items in the
   digest

   McCool: there needs to be a way to support keys in the TD
   … or it could be a URL that points to the keys

   McCool: there is a question of which curves to support beyond
   JWS
   … testing could impose a practical limit on the number of
   curves we can support

   McCool: there is an issue with including the digest as a
   mandatory element in TD

   McCool: there could be 2-step validation, before and after

   McCool: another question about expanding references
   … we can't validate a TD with expanded references

   McCool: we could build reference expansion into the processing
   … the expanded form wouldn't be stored or validated

   McCool: with PKI, the signatures aren't compared directly but
   decrypted and the hash compared

   McCool: it introduces a dependency on signature type

   Philipp: the curve selection is important; it's good to support
   a lot of curves, but maybe we don't need to test optional
   curves

   McCool: we can't use a curve that we can't test, so we will
   need a small set

   Philipp: we have the same situation in other areas, for example
   CBOR + JSON issue in the profiles

   McCool: the testing doesn't need to include the mathematics of
   the curves
   … we just use a library

   kaz: the main consideration is 2 implementations

   McCool: the TD feature we are testing is the signature wrapper

   McCool: we should test the 3 reference types json pointer, json
   path, and xpath

   Philipp: we should test the DID method

   McCool: we have a general need to test URI methods

   McCool: we get to a question of coverage vs. requirement

   McCool: would like to merge this PR but it could be TD 2.0

   McCool: any other PRs?

   McCool: canonicalization wrt prefixes is still a question

   McCool: any other topics?
   … AOB?
   … adjourn
