Comments
- Only Recommend for ECC (not MUST), to avoid IPR issues?, SHA2 a  
MUST...
"SHA2 + RSA" and "EC-based signature algorithms",

- Transform simplification should be on v2.0 roadmap, not 1.1

5) Requirements

5a) Certificates and DER encoding

"certificates SHOULD be DER encoded ... and implementations MAY issue  
an error if an encoding other than DER is encountered"
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xmlsec/2008Nov/0009.html  
(Konrad)

DER required for Cert extensions, but CA chooses encoding
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xmlsec/2008Nov/0010.html  
(Magnus)

important to note CA is third party and chooses encoding, so do not  
mandate DER
