Re: [ietf-dkim] New Issue: note on figure in overview draft

2008-03-23 14:33:04
Mumble.

Proposed new text:

               <t hangText="Note:"> By virtue of showing a single private/public
                   key pairing, <xref target="DKIMSvc" /> can be taken to refer
                   to a single message signature. The figure is not intended to
                   comment upon single vs. multiple signature and merely shows
                   the sequential relationship between a signer and a validator
                   and their functional components. </t>

At the end of section 5, just before the header 5.1 (page 15 of the txt
version) it says:

   Note:  Figure 1 does not show the effects on the message handling
      when multiple signatures or non-author signatures are present.

By my reading, fig 1 covers all signatures, single, multiple, author,
or otherwise, e.g., in the figure it says Verify Signatures with
Signatures in the plural.

Suggested fix: delete the note.

R's,
John
