Signed bytes are superseded, not edited
· Council of AI (CSOAI Ltd)
A card whose signed body was wrong is still served; a published ledger row points to its replacement and says why.
Signed bytes are not edited; they are superseded, and the supersession is published. The card signed-affect-0e870854f6bf.json for deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3.2 on the affect axis is still served and still signed, and its body still reads UNMEASURED with the marker signed-pending-verify at n=30. SUPERSEDED.jsonl carries a row with superseded_file signed-affect-0e870854f6bf.json, by_file signed-affect-e37184166a77.json, the reason "#1155: body state corrected - the signed body must be true after signing", and the time 2026-09-03T05:14:29Z. The replacement card is signed under the same did, did:web:csoai.org#board-attestation-1, and its body reads MEASURED at n=30. A reader holding the old card can find what replaced it and why; a reader holding the new card can find what it replaced. Nothing was deleted, neither signature was touched, and both files remain fetchable at their original URLs.
