Subject: Re: [COSE] [cose-issues] add the value type 'bstr' to counter signature (#52)

Hi Mike, the goal behind this is again to reduce the size of the COSE message: instead of using a COSE_Signature structure (which itself contains headers and bstr signature value), we would like to use the simple bstr signature value directly.  This would reduce the size of 3B: 1 for the array, 1 for the unprotected header and 1 for the protected header.

(the discussion about this in the mailing list is [here]([COSE] Issue - add the value type 'bstr' to counter signature)).
