OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) TC

Greetings!

Working http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-3027 and the
suggested text reads:


> The three stages of the encryption process proceed as follows, using
> the legacy algorithms to illustrate each stage: 

3.4.2 of Part 3.

OK, but the first step reads:


>      1. The start key is generated: The byte sequence representing the
>         password in UTF-8 is used to generate a 20-byte SHA1 digest
>         (see [RFC3174]).

Is the only *normative* text:

1. The start key is generated:

???

The rest is just note material? 

If it is illustration, I can make notes for each of the three steps. 

Or do we mean to specify any of this in the current standard? 

Thanks!

Patrick

I always read ":" as if it says "namely".

I agree that we could break it down and separate the provision from the illustration, now that there may be multiple ways to do these things.  

I left that text along because if the illustrative material were removed, there would be nothing different between 3.4.1 and 3.4.2.

Can we look at this after you have an editor-revision and we can review it all in context?

Sure. I will go ahead an paste in the requested text as is and make a
note to post further suggestions on it to the list. 

Hope you are having a great day!
