\sigauth{NL}
This specification is currently a draft and requires that each requirement be
verified and authorized for development.
\sigauth{NL}
An authorization indicates that a member of the indicated party or parties with
sufficient knowledge on topic affirms that the requirement is---to the best of
his or her knowledge---accurate and suitable for incorporation into an
implementation of the specification.
\sigauth{NL}
\p{signcomp} A signature line next to content that is not a numbered paragraph
is a \dfn{significant component}.
\sigauth{NL}
\begin{ex}
\signline
This example is not a paragraph but still contains a signature line; it is
therefore a significant component under the definition of \pref{signcomp}.
\end{ex}
\sigauth{NL}
Each paragraph and significant component of the specification, unless incomplete
or previously authorized, contains a line that may be used for the initials of a
member of the party indicated in parenthesis. If multiple parties are
applicable, they will be separated with slashes.
\sigauth{NL}
Only a member of the party knowledgeable on the topic \shall provide their
authorization.
\sigauth{NL}
An authorization is performed by (a)~signing one's initials on the provided line
or (b)~indicating the paragraph number (or, for significant components, an
appropriate notation containing at least the section number and a unique
identifier for the significant component itself) via some \unspecified\ method
of correspondence that explicitly indicates each and every individual
authorization.
\sigauth{NL}
A particular authorization is valid until the authorized paragraph or significant
component is modified from its authorized form.
\sigauth{NL}
Signature lines with no authorization party listed \shallnot be authorized until
at least one party has been chosen.
