No I agree, we are trying to stay away from legal statements , that
requires much more.

Hi Frederick,
re author, would the term "creator" in the sentence from Thomas
help,
this probably doesn't help, since by definition author means
creator...
Yes, it seems the same.
Thomas' statement:
" What the author certificate lets you verify is whether a single
party is taking responsibility for two widgets.
There is indeed no *proof* of authorship here, but a statement that
the signer is willing to assume the blame for being the widget's
author. Which is all we need, no?"
As for me author is just some distinguished entity. That's all and
nothing more.
I think we should not try to specify in the W3C spec that the author
takes the responsibility for what the widget does. It could be
legally binding. Is this what we really want?
Thanks.
Kind regards,
Marcin
