Widget Test Cases Creation Event - September 21st-23rd, Düsseldorf
Dear widget fans, I am pleased to inform you that Vodafone is offering to host a W3C event taking place from September 21st-23rd in Düsseldorf. This widget test cases creation event (in lack of a better name:-) shall be fully dedicated to the development of tests cases relating to the requirements defined by several widgets technical specifications (see http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/wiki/PubStatus#Widgets_Specifications). The high level objective is to develop a good amount of test cases, ideally let them run on some real implementations, improve iterativly and finally publish them at http://dev.w3.org/2006/waf/widgets/tests/. More information regarding registration, etc to follow shortly via W3C staff/WG chairs. So if you are interested to join, make sure you block the above dates in your calendar. Best regards, Christian Breitschwerdt Vodafone Group Research Development Standardisation and Industry Engagement
WARP: Example
Hi, Wrt the latest draft of WARP, I noticed that the usage example of the access element is actually not very meaningful as the last access element with uri=* allows access to practically everywhere, thus turning the earlier more restrictive permissions pointless. Regards, Christian
Widget DigSign: Example of a distributor signature document is buggy
Hi Marcos, The position of the object element in the example provided in http://www.w3.org/TR/widgets-digsig/ section 1.4 is not correct in that the object occurs before the SignatureValue. The DTD provided fo the XMLDIG11 http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/WD-xmldsig-core1-20090226/xmldsig-core-schema. dtd and also the example http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/WD-xmldsig-core1-20090226/signature-example.xm l instruct us that it should occur AFTER the SignatureValue. The major problem with the example is that even it is non-normative it may be used by implementors as a template, and some existing XML security tools chains (i.e. Apache XML security library) will fail to process a template that has the object in the wrong order. Kind regards, Christian
