Title: DK guideline about signature in english

Peter,

 

I have read your OIOUBL guideline for signature and
I recognise you have done quite a good job. Nevertheless, I want to ask some
questions about it because the spanish legislation mandates the use of a
digital signature attached to the actual invoice document to guarantee the
integrity of the document and the identity of the sender, and that is a legal
requirement you are excluding in your document in 3.1. 

 

I first thought that point 3.4 in your document was
enough to accomplish the spanish requirement, however, I see that probably we
need something more. I agree with your interpretation of the UBL Signature
component, but I don’t understand why it has to refer to another document
through an external reference. 

 

Do you think that we could find a way to sign the
actual document, without the need to store the original one wherever in the
network?

 

Should we attach or embed an XML DSIG or XADES as
is, in XML (maybe as an extension) rather than in Base64 encoding?

 

Tell me if I’m wrong, but I think the process
to get a document signed is something difficult, because, if I have understood
it well, you have to stamp the signature and publish the original document somewhere
in order to be validated by the receiver. 

 

Finally, talking about the validation method, it
seems something like a trusted third party service that modifies the actual
document in order to add information about when and where the signature has
been validated. Here there are two points, the first one is that with this
approach, it seems that the receiver cannot validate the signature by itself
and always has to rely on a trusted third party, and secondly, the original
document is modified by that trusted third party, which I think is not really
safe.

 

 

Regards,

Oriol
