PKIX1 definition of a certificate
"(4) the term 'public key certificates' means a certification of
the determination of the origin of encrypted information through
verification of a persons public key by identifying the unique
characteristics of the key;"
Should we alter PKIX-1 to have this as the definition of a
PKIX public key certificate (assuming someone knows what
the above means).
(One notes that the above would not seem to cover a PKIX
DSA or ECC-DSA certificate validating a DSA/ECC-DSA digital
signature.)
