live-conformance/audience — audience decisions and territories

The corpus of extensions/audience-decision.md §8, in one file, vectors.json.

Provenance. Generated here by wai_audience_decision_vectors gen (wai-rs, feature audience_decision), from Ed25519 keys on seeds of one byte repeated 32 times and constant instants; no input from outside this repository. Every region is an ISO 3166-1 user-assigned code (XA, XB, …) or a subdivision of one, and names no place.

keys names every key by its role, as 64 lowercase hexadecimal digits: the decider and another, the publishers of the territory statements, the servers the placements place (server_c1, active with cache/serve; server_c2, in no log; server_c3, revoked; server_c8, listed with delivery-gap alone), the operator's key log root, and small_order, the identity point.

• aggregations (§4.3) are each blackouts and a session's location (a region code or null); outcome is the evidence it aggregates to, region and resolved.
• decisions (§4.4 to §4.6) are each a decision's text; outcome is read, with its digest, verdict, applied and alternate, or refuse and its reason.
• classes (§4.7) are each a decision's text and a session class (http-delivery Appendix H); outcome is consistent with the class's session_class_hash, or refuse with its reason and, for audience_class_mismatch, the member that differs.
• statements (§5.2, §5.3) are each a territory statement's text; outcome is read, with its digest, publisher and show, or refuse and its reason.
• territories (§5.4, §5.5) are each texts, a publisher, the receivers' region (or null) and the instant at_us; outcome.territory is the territory as §5.5 writes it.
• placements (§5.6) are each a server key, an instant at_ms, the heads by origin, a publisher, a region and texts; outcome is the placement as cache-authority §4.4 writes it and the territory beside it.

Everything is synthetic: keys attest nothing. Each case states the outcome it was written to have, declared in the generator and never copied from a verifier.

wai_audience_decision_vectors verify and tests/audience_decision.rs check that the file regenerates byte for byte and that wai-rs reaches every stated outcome. ../audience_decision_verify.py is the second implementation, written from the extension's text, which also mutates copies of the corpus and drops each of its own checks in turn and requires each to be caught.
