Nathan Barry commented on the blog post Designing a Signature 10 months ago
No, I haven’t read it. Looks interesting.
I also thought having your signature match over time was important, but I decided that if the new signature was ever rejected I could always sign the old one instead. Over time I will switch all documents over to the new signature. In general though I don’t think [...] -
