Hi Joseph,

hope it's not too late ;-)

First of all, in "section 3.1" and "section 4.1 point 3.1" a quote is 
(probably) wrong:

'element' or element 'content'
should be
'element' or 'element content'

OR it should read

'element' or 'content'

-------------------------------------

In "section 4.1 point 3.1", the last sentence is correct but reads a little 
bit bad. I would end the sentence: "If the encryptor does not serialize, 
then the application MUST perform the serialization."

-------------------------------------

I would add the following as a note to section 4.1 bullet 5.1:

<EXISTING_TEXT>The application MAY use this as the top-level element in a 
new XML document or insert it into another XML document. </EXISTING_TEXT>

<P>Note: If the <CODE>EncryptedData</CODE> element is used as the root 
element of a new document, the <STRONG>encryptor</STRONG> MUST ensure that 
the Type is not element '<A
href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006#NT-content">content</A>'. 
Otherwise <A 
HREF="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006#dt-wellformed">well-formed
ness</A> would be broken after decryption. </P>



Thanks,
Christian
