It’s been great working to make the ODF standard better, and we’ve made a lot of progress together on signatures, and it looks like encryption will also be much improved soon. I’ve enjoyed working with all of you – thanks to everyone for all the help you’ve given me. I’m moving on to a similar job in ...
The pros and cons are this - if you wanted to sign the root element, then you have to make an XPath transform to exclude the document-signatures node. Which then implies that implementers have to support XPath transforms, and they have to check that the transform that excludes the document-signatures ...
Yes, you can do signatures, but the current standard does not cover it. You would need to create a new section determining how to do this. The current standard mandates a document-signatures root in a particular file. You can obviously put that node internal to a larger XML, but we don't currently document ...
You also cannot sign or encrypt it. It would be possible to construct a signature, but not using the current ODF 1.2 signing standard.
