Dear all:
A revised document has been posted at
http://www.connotech.com/doc_rw_sign_basic-02.html, including a fix for
an elementary security issue (and two other items, see document revision
history).
I received some, but not much, feedback (positive) on the first version.
Regards,
- Thierry

Title and abstract:
Scirpo, a Basic Rabin-Williams Digital Signature Specification
The public key cryptography digital signatures are well studied since
the early publications by academics three decades ago. On the
deployment front, many standardization efforts brought the digital
signature techniques at the core of current computer networks. This
document almost completely ignores such standards, and focuses on the
theoretical foundations of the Rabin-Williams digital signature
scheme; it merely describes a simple digital signature scheme
including minimal interoperability provisions. While devoid of any
advance to the art or science of applied cryptography, this document
appears original in its formalization of a signature scheme details
with this minimalistic approach centered on theoretical foundations.
