Re: Back to nothing: URI solution works?

[Stephen Farrell <stephen.farrell@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

(I thought the "back to nothing" thread was about keyUsage,
not biometrics, but since I've been dumb enough to stick
my head up...)

I suggested that it was silly to present a digest
without being able to point at something that allows you 
to verify the digest, as you should be able to see from 
the archive (but its so long ago I forget, maybe it was
a private posting). I think Steve K. addressed the issue
when he said that handing over a URL says nothing about
who can gets a 404 vs. a 200 when they ask for the content.
