-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [jose] #20: Shorter names for JSON serialization From: Mike Jones <[email protected]> Date: Tue, May 07, 2013 10:40 pm To: Richard Barnes <[email protected]>, Jim Schaad <[email protected]> Cc: "[email protected]" <[email protected]>, jose issue tracker <[email protected]>, "[email protected]" <[email protected]> What about “iv” and “tag”? For the other names, I’d actually prefer staying with those that are full words rather than those that are abbreviations of words, since they’re more descriptive. But I agree that “initialization_vector” and “authentication_tag” were overkill. -- Mike From: Richard Barnes [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, May 06, 2013 2:51 PM To: Jim Schaad Cc: jose issue tracker; [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Re: [jose] #20: Shorter names for JSON serialization Even that's the name for the corresponding field in CMS AuthEnvelopedData and AuthenticatedData?

It is not necessarily a MAC in all cases so calling it one make thing problematical - much like calling a mac a sig.
