Sorry, I did not mean that stripping was suggested; the previous
phrase (non-normatively) recommends against stripping. My question is,
since the subject of the sentence is "signed paths" whether the "MUST
be signed" language means "MUST NOT strip the signature" (which I
suspect to be the case), or something else.


how about

As the mildly stochastic timing of RPKI propagation may cause version skew across routers, an AS Path which does not validate at router R0 might validate at R1. Therefore, signed paths that are Not Valid and
   yet propagated (because they are chosen as best path) MUST NOT have
   signatures stripped and MUST be signed if sent to external BGPsec
   speakers.

if not, use larger clue bat

It's likely I have this particular bat by the wrong end.

In the last sentence, does "MUST be signed" mean it must have a signature (which would seem to make "MUST NOT strip" and "MUST be signed" redundant), or does it mean the propagating router must add it's own signature in addition to the existing one(s)?

Ben.
