--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Alfred Hoenes <[email-masked]>

Section: 9.1.3, pg.39

Original Text
-------------
   signedAttrs:  an optional set of attributes that are signed along
      with the content.

|  digestAlgorithm:  identifies the digital signature algorithm and
      associated parameters used to generate the signature.

   signature:  the digital signature of the associated file.

   unsignedAttrs:  an optional set of attributes that are not signed.

Corrected Text
--------------
   signedAttrs:  an optional set of attributes that are signed along
      with the content.

|  signatureAlgorithm:  identifies the digital signature algorithm and
      associated parameters used to generate the signature.

   signature:  the digital signature of the associated file.

   unsignedAttrs:  an optional set of attributes that are not signed.

Notes
-----
Rationale: 
Same SEQUENCE element name listed twice, for two different explanations.

Further Note (keep for update!):
  In Section 9.1, in the ASN.1 on page 37, for a better approximation
  to ASN.1, all pairs of curly braces, "{" ... "}", should better be
  preceded by the keyword "SEQUENCE".
