Title : Delegated Path Discovery with OCSP

OCSP [RFC2560] establishes the Internet standard for online certificate status. An
OCSP path discovery responder is an enhanced OCSP responder that provides requestors
with certification paths. The technological and geographic diversity of the sources
of these data motivates existence of service that enables relying-party software to
acquire certification path data from an OCSP server rather than replicate the same
functionality. This specification establishes an Internet standard extension to OCSP
to address this need.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
