title="Collision-resistant canonicalization requirements">
2695-
The VCWG is seeking feedback on normative language that cryptographic suite
2696-
implementers need to follow to ensure that they do not utilize data
2697-
transformation mechanisms that can map to the same output. That is, given
2698-
different inputs for canonicalization scheme #1 and canonicalization scheme #2,
2699-
they must not produce the same output value. As an analogy, this is the same
2700-
requirement for cryptographic hashing mechanisms and is why those schemes are
2701-
designed to be collision resistant. Cryptographic canonicalization mechanisms
2702-
have the same requirement. At present, this isn't a problem because the three
2703-
expected canonicalization schemes &mdash; the Universal RDF Dataset
2704-
Canonicalization Algorithm 2015 [[?RDF-CANON]], JSON Canonicalization
2705-
Scheme [[?RFC8785]], and a theoretical future base-encoding canonicalization
2706-
&mdash; have entirely different outputs.

title="Avoiding the pitfalls of XML Canonicalization">
2710-
The VCWG is seeking feedback on whether to explain why modern canonicalization
2711-
schemes are simpler than the far more complex XML Canonicalization schemes of
2712-
the early 2000s. Some readers seem to be under the impression that all
2713-
canonicalization is difficult and has to be avoided at all costs (including costs
2714-
to application developers). The WG would like to understand if it would be helpful
2715-
to include a section explaining why some simpler data syntaxes (such as JSON) are
2716-
easier to canonicalize than more complex data syntaxes (such as XML).
