Thanks Sean and all the other editors for work on this

<sean> sure

<scribe> ACTION: Sean clean up the doc - update styles, include other editors, check references and formatting. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2008/02/05-xmlsec-minutes.html#action02]

<trackbot-ng> Created ACTION-143 - Clean up the doc - update styles, include other editors, check references and formatting. [on Sean Mullan - due 2008-02-12].

<fhirsch> shortname - e.g. "c14n11-xmlsig2-interop-tests"

<fhirsch> The syntax of a "This Version" URI must be <http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/

<fhirsch> NOTE-shortname-2008MMDD/>

<fhirsch> need to update link in document to w3c, currently link goes to etsi web site.

<jcc> Sean, could you please update my email address to cruellas@ac.upc.edu in the interop test? thanks

<sean> yes

<fhirsch> http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/NOTE-ws-policy-primer-20071112/

The above illustrates an example of short naming

<fhirsch> "c14n11-xmlsig2-interop-tests"

The short name looks good to me

<sean> or maybe just xmldsig2-interop-tests

I like Sean's idea

<brich> +1

<fhirsch> +1

<sean> i prefer xmldsig since that is what is used in the shortname URIs of the xml signatures specs (ex: http://www.w3.org/2007/xmlsec/Drafts/xmldsig-core)

EXI

Comments from Juan Carlos: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xmlsec-maintwg/2008Jan/ 0049.html

<fhirsch> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xmlsec-maintwg/2008Jan/0049.html

<fhirsch> Two comments: 1. attributes in xml namespace not discussed, 2. how are mapping tables populated?

<scribe> ACTION: fhirsch will look into this and see if we need do anything and to get back to EXI group [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2008/02/05-xmlsec-minutes.html#action03]

<EdS> Since the core spec is called "XML Signature", not "XML Digital Signature", I prefer "xmlsig" (rather than "xmldsig") as our standard, universal shortname for "XML Signature".

<scribe> ACTION: fhirsch will look into this and see if we need do anything and to get back to EXI group [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2008/02/05-xmlsec-minutes.html#action04]

<fhirsch> action - fhirsch will look into this and see if we need do anything and to get back to EXI group

NOTE: ACTION: fhirsch will look into this and see if we need do anything and to get back to EXI group

<fhirsch> ACTION-141 and ACTION-142 closed

Any other business

None
