ISSUE-173: Signature Properties specification does not state where the properties must be placed

Signature Properties specification does not state where the properties must be placed

State:
CLOSED
Product:
XML Signature Properties
Raised by:
Frederick Hirsch
Opened on:
2010-01-15
Description:
The Signature Properties specification defines signature properties to be used with XML Signature. The intent is that every property be placed within a ds:SignatureProperty element, contained within a ds:SignatureProperties element within ds:Object, according to XML Signature. This is not stated explicitly within the Signature Properties specification and should be.

Proposal:

Add new section 5 after section 4, Usage scenarios and Requirements. Renumber subsequent sections.

Define new section as follows:

5. Signature Properties Placement

The Signature Properties defined in this specification are intended to be used
with XML Signature [XML-Signature-11].

When a Signature Property element defined by this specification is used within an XML Signature it MUST be contained within a ds:SignatureProperty element.

This ds:SignatureProperty element MUST be contained within a ds:SignatureProperties element.

The ds:SignatureProperties element MUST contained within a ds:Object element within the ds:Signature element.
