Just so folk know where I am here is the list of edits that I have not yet completed: In addition I need to fix some code. 303 Denis Pinkas: 8. The two overviews from sections 1.5 and 1.6 do not provide a clear picture of the functions that are supported. They should be both revised.> A text is proposed as an annex at the end of these comments. Resolution - Editorial - some text to be merged 303 Denis Pinkas: 20. The text under [177] mentions the <UseKeyWith> element which specifie>s a subject identifier and application identifier that determine a use of the> key. The <UseKeyWith> must contain "Application" which is a URI that specifies the application protocol with which the key may be used and "Identifier" which specifies the subject to which the key corresponds wit>hin the specified application protocol. A protocol can support a sender and a> receiver. It is unclear whether the Identifier corresponds to the sender >or the receiver. It seems that the notion is by itself insufficient and shou>ld be extended to make such difference. Noted, the issue is not one of 'sender' and receiver but instead 'self' and 'other'. It is possible to imagine that a client might have need to ask which key it should itself use for a particular protocol. 304 Carlisle Adams: 4 Section 6.1.1: Example: Registration of Client-Generated Key Pair. In the element, there is no key identifier. How is the service supposed to know which key to use to verify this binding? Is it supposed to be implied from the elements in ? If so (or if there's some other way that the service is supposed to figure this out), shouldn't this be specified somewhere so that implementers know what to build? 305 Joseph Reagle Document doesn't flow as smoothly as it might: 1. Section 1 says there are two "service specifications" but doesn't say where they are more fully described or specified. Forward references? 2. The sections in section 1.7 do not correspond to the sections of the table of contents. 3. Section 1.5 has the same title as Section 4 (except that it has "specification"). How to make this flow better, or at least use the term (r not) "specification" consistently. 4. Generally, I don't distinguish between a "message format" and a "message syntax." What do these section do differently?
