A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 3741 Title: Exclusive XML Canonicalization, Version 1.0 Author(s): J. Boyer, D. Eastlake 3rd, J. Reagle Status: Informational Date: March 2004 Mailbox: jboyer@PureEdge.com, Donald.Eastlake@motorola.com, reagle@mit.edu Pages: 16 Characters: 35403 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-xmldsig-xc14n-02.txt URL: ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc3741.txt Canonical XML specifies a standard serialization of XML that, when applied to a subdocument, includes the subdocument's ancestor context including all of the namespace declarations and attributes in the "xml:" namespace. However, some applications require a method which, to the extent practical, excludes ancestor context from a canonicalized subdocument. For example, one might require a digital signature over an XML payload (subdocument) in an XML message that will not break when that subdocument is removed from its original message and/or inserted into a different context. This requirement is satisfied by Exclusive XML Canonicalization. This document is a product of the XML Digital Signatures Working Group of the IETF.
