Heiko Schaefer	71df26b237	I feel that this addition is more confusing than helpful, here? ... (We're not introducing the term in this meaning, anywhere, as far as i can tell)	2023-11-28 20:14:55 +01:00
Heiko Schaefer	3235ad49d4	i think the rfc says that generic certifications are commonly used for third party certifications, while this section is about self-signatures	2023-11-28 20:06:24 +01:00

Paul Schaub	6700eddaba	There are different implementations of the WoT around, not all of them might use DK sigs as delegations afaik	2023-11-27 20:25:05 +01:00
Heiko Schaefer	3a921f6528	Merge branch 'draft' into tammi-ch8-heiko ... # Conflicts: # book/source/08-signing_components.md	2023-11-25 23:09:12 +01:00
Heiko Schaefer	06c40b0275	i'm uncomfortable offering an explanation for this recommendation ... (i don't think security is a concern here. maybe interoperability?)	2023-11-25 17:49:35 +01:00

Heiko Schaefer	4b9c064a8b	it seems confusing to imply that bob will necessarily distribute a third-party certification, this is only true some of the time	2023-11-25 15:43:24 +01:00
Heiko Schaefer	a3b5e263e3	add missing space	2023-11-25 15:36:40 +01:00
Heiko Schaefer	5f694e8c23	clarification: "append" implies "stored at the end of a file." this is not generally true for these two cases. ... I now realize that this is weird: we're claiming that certificates are "append only". However, the meaning of that term, in OpenPGP is ... not about the location of additions. Rather it just means "we only get to add packets, not remove them". Regardless of packet order.	2023-11-25 15:11:17 +01:00
Heiko Schaefer	5faec16cb8	Improve on original text: "Elements" encompass both "components" and "signatures." Regarding malicious addition, we care about both. ...

Heiko Schaefer	e05f104974	clarify enumeration of legitimate unbound packets ... This is supposed to be a list of legitimate uses. I've removed the elaboration of the flooding problem, and replaced it with a link to an elaboration in ch4.	2023-11-25 14:16:30 +01:00
