I’m a little bit on the edge with url_sig. We’re working on a plugin that implements the CDNI Signed URL spec, which I think is a nicer way to go forward. The specs from CDNI would not allow the “bit-field” features that url_sig has (yet at least). But I’d encourage people to look at the CDNI spec over e.g. url_sig or other custom made URL signing protocols. That much said, I’m merely -0 on promoting url_sig to stable, i.e. I’d prefer to see it deprecated over time, but I don’t care strongly. The CDNI specs are at https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-cdni-uri-signing-03. Cheers, — Leif
