Some additional comments on draft http://tools.ietf.org/pdf/draft-eastlake-additional-xmlsec-uris-08.pdf

sorry about the delay getting these comments to you.

(1) We have defined different *informative* URIs for AES Key Wrap with Padding in XML Encryption 1.1 [http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlenc-core1/#sec-kw-aes-with-pad] which are different from those in the RFC, namely

http://www.w3.org/2009/xmlenc11#kw-aes-128-pad

http://www.w3.org/2009/xmlenc11#kw-aes-192-pad

http://www.w3.org/2009/xmlenc11#kw-aes-256-pad

I suggest we change this informative appendix of XML Encryption 1.1 (and the Security Algorithms Cross-Reference) to match what is in the RFC draft. Thomas, is there any problem with that at this PR stage?

Those in the RFC draft are:

http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#kw-aes128-pad 

http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#kw-aes192-pad 

http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#kw-aes256-pad

(2) ConcatKDF fragment needs fixing in 4.1 and change log Appendix A due to a typo

"2009/xmlenc11#ConctKDF [XMLENC]" should be "2009/xmlenc11#ConcatKDF [XMLENC]"

"#ConctKDF," should be "#ConcatKDF,"

(3) To some degree the fragment index and URI index replicate the published W3C Note, XML Security Algorithm Cross-Reference and could be incorporated there.

(4) I suggest an update to the Introduction to mention XML Security 1.1 as follows

after "All of these standards and recommendations use URIs [RFC3986] to identify algorithms and keying information types."

add

"The W3C has subsequently produced updated  XML Signature 1.1  [XMLDSIG11] and XML Encryption 1.1 [XMLENC11} versions as well as a new XML Signature Properties specification [XMLDSIG-PROPERTIES].

(5) Typo in introduction

"Canoncialization" should be "Canonicalization"

(6) References

Add references to XML Signature 1.1, XML Encryption 1.1, XML Signature Properties, XML Security Algorithm Cross-Reference (all to be updated upon Recommendation publication)

Signature properties has added a namespace: xmlns dsp="http://www.w3.org/2009/xmldsig-properties";
