Subject: [dtn] BPSec optional Security Source

Ed,
My interpretation of the purpose of the ASB Security Source field is to indicate the EID only if it's different than the bundle's source, but there's no actual requirement that I can see in the spec about this. Does it seem like a reasonable statement to say something like "If the security source EID is the same as the bundle source EID, as identified in the primary block, the Security Source field SHALL NOT be included in the ASB." but rephrased as needed?
Thanks,
Brian S.
