4.9.  Output Requirements

The output of the verifier MUST embody:

embody --> include (if it embodied them, that arguably implies that it doesn't
  include anything else)

-          A result code that indicates whether or not the signature was 
validated (PERMFAIL or TEMPFAIL as
described in Section 7.1, or a success result code)

-          If the signature did validate, the value of the "d=" tag, i.e., the 
signing domain

The verifier MAY include other outputs, but this is implementation-dependent 
and not mandatory.  The verifier
MAY also include as secondary data some information indicating the specific 
cause of a failure.

Do we need to say anything about the possibility that there are multiple
signatures?

R's,
John
