changed terribly in its markup details, which would allow OPC to make restricting statements that would apply equally to current and upcoming XAdES. I may be wrong. Though if the differences are minor, we may simply note something like: for TS 101 903: foo,
and for EN 319 132: bar. We have a proposed set of requirements based on TS 101 903 in a draft we looked at in Bellevue, very similar to both MS-OFFCRYPTO and ODF 1.2, which we could evaluate against the latest draft of EN 319 132 to get a better idea of
this.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
