Re: Attribute Ordering

I can't believe that I'm talking about this again ... :-)  (Look in the 
archives of 2-3 years
ago to discover why I am groaning ...)

Hoyt,
        You are correct, but it is actually much easier than you describe.

        For SET OFs:
                Encode each element (according to DER !),
                Order the elements by sorting the encoded forms.

        (NOTE: this means that length - typically - will play an important part 
!)
