Actually I am new to this list and was not aware that 2.0 will incorporate digital signatures. What exactly will they be used to sign? My understanding is that digital sigs are usually used to sign email and AFAIK there is no email component to OpenOffice. Am I wrong about that? Or are they being used to sign files? (I have never seen x.509 certs used to sign files before.) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEAREDAAYFAkIwc0AACgkQzIf+rZpn0oRzjACgjf6a83l121fxSDDm+K5DnDzo swUAmgKPxuiHGR3t3/1p599DCgHWQmGl =tBuL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
