Actually, RFC 3748 is quite clear  about this already.


My belief is that your draft should cover the sorts of issues that
applicability statements generally cover... What issues should an
applied-to thing consider when applying the applied thing.
What issues should you consider when evaluating whether the applied
thing is appropriate to apply.

I'm not proposing changing EAp.

Also, my understanding is that the scope of your document is uses of EAP
within ABFAB's scope.
That is, uses of EAp within the scope of application authentication.
What's going on with PCP is very much within that scope.

So would you be willing to reread my messages in that revised context
and give me your thoughts there?
