F.Y.I. There has recently been some discussions within OASIS regarding the launch of a TC for the purpose of creating a Web Sign standard. Web Sign: The ability for a user to sign a document or form in a web browser and having the signature submitted to a web server. A minimal such function already exists in Mozilla Firefox in the form of "signText". Having worked with Web Sign concepts for several years, I am happy about the increasing interest in creating a standard, but I also know that there are huge scope issues to agree on including: - Document format(s) - Signature invocation mechanism to use - Wet or dry signature support - Local signature validation/multiple signatures - Encryption options - WYSIWYS In case you are is interested, please drop me a line. regards Anders Rundgren Working for a major US computer security company but here acting as an individual
