Discussion

    2. Errata progress
     Mike has posted a draft of the errata in DocBook format. One outstanding issue was raised regarding the error list and an inconsistent value that had been raised by Eric on December 4.

Points such as was this in scope, was it a responsibility of the payload/transport and is interoperability with encryption and signing.

It was also agreed that more research and study was required before any decision of if this work should be attempted as part of version 3.0.

Face to Face
