Subject: [PATCH] Removed static scope from the _TAG member variable in
 UnknownAttestation.

```
 UnknownAttestation(byte[] tag, byte[] payload) {
        super();
        this._TAG = tag;
        this.payload = payload;
    }
```
In constructor, for each instance it is getting overrided.

```
        if (!Arrays.equals(this._TAG(), ((UnknownAttestation) obj)._TAG())) {
            return false;
        }
```
Since _TAG is declared static always this if statement will be false.
