The author approved the text and the six open decisions on 1 October 2026.
The spec says now what the review left open: the form of the CMS signature
and of the TSTInfo field by field, the ESSCertIDv2 with SHA-256 written, the
padding of the locator at its boundaries, base32 CIDs, the addresses read
without decoding, the issuer shown by the rules of the holder, and the area
decided after the signatures. SpecVersion is 0.11, the records of fixtures
and vectors say so, and decrypt shows an mtime later than a valid seal as an
inconsistency, which 29.7 asks as a SHOULD.

Fixtures format3_signed_cms (alg 2, two certificates, each sealed, F6) and
format3_sealed (alg 1 and a seal of seal_type 2, F4 and S4), with the
certificates, SIGNERS, the commitments, SEAL_SUBJECT, the token and the
result of each signer in their records. vectors/security_cms.json has 22
frozen areas with their context and verdicts (F1, F2, F5, F6, S1 to S5), and
vectors/locator.json the extension datekeys.capsule with its envelope hidden
in a host, its locator sealed with tlock, the padding at the boundaries and
the rules of the addresses. The README of testdata describes all of it.
