There is a connection between: XML Signature http://www.w3.org/Signature/ XML Encryption http://www.w3.org/Encryption/2001/ XML Protocols http://www.w3.org/2000/xp/ This has nothing to do with DRM in a strict sense. These are modules, that are needed for the overall W3C Architecture and it's technology. They are building the infrastructure, that DRM can use. If there will be an activity on DRM within W3C, it will surely have dependencies to those technologies... Note, that I'm also responsible for our relation to ETSI [1] and CEN[2]. They are currently developing a Certificate - Format and Requirements for Electronic Signatures in the sense of the EU-Directive[3]: [1] http://www.etsi.org/sec/el-sign.htm [2] http://www.cenorm.be/isss/Workshop/e-sign/Default.htm [3] http://europa.eu.int/comm/internal_market/en/media/sign/index.htm If you take DRM in the widest possible sense, this is also important and could be named DRM....
