Right now the steps to verify an artifact is split between two pages:

@joshuagl and I discussed discussed a possible reorganization:

  • Move all of the content to the spec, with the provenance page just linking there. This way there's no jumping back and forth.
  • In the spec, say that we assume the reader is using slsa.dev/provenance/v1, but explain that if they are using something else they need to do the equivalent. This would also force us to explain each step to say why we're doing it.
  • Organize the page as follows (not sure of section titles):
    • Overview / what the purpose of verification is
    • Talk about architecture options:
      • package ecosystem vs consumer --- we recommend moving the work to the ecosystem but it's not mandatory.
      • upload time vs install time vs monitoring (first half of Verifying Expectations)
    • How to verify = merge content from provenance/v1#verification plus second half of Verifying Expectations
  • Remove Provenance Distribution since that is out of place (already found on Producing Artifacts)
