You misunderstand the process.  The RFC editor replaces the TBDs with the IANA 
assigned values just before Auth48

The problem with this, unless I misunderstand the process, is that it will 
result in an RFC containing TBD# for the assignments, rather the actual 
numbers, which is less useful to developers.  I think it would be better for 
the RFC to contain the assigned numbers.

Or better, go through the normal IANA registration process to get them

Thanks for the info, Jim.  Since the numeric assignments are wrong, the first 
thing to do for either draft would be to incorporate correct ones.

Subject: [COSE] Adoption of RSA and alternative algorithms

 

Hi all, hope that everyone is recovering from Berlin. As discussed in the 
meeting last week, the working group is considering additional work on RSA and 
other algorithms in the COSE messages framework. These would be published in a 
document separate from the core draft that is now on its journey to RFC-land.

 

The chairs would like to gauge the sentiment of the working group on a number 
of items related to this proposed work. Please respond with your answers to the 
list.

 

 

1) Do you think it’s necessary or worthwhile to define RSA and other additional 
algorithms in the COSE messages framework?

 

A) Yes, we should do an RSA/other-algs document

B) No, we shouldn’t do an RSA/other-algs document

C) Yes, but not right now

D) I need more information (please ask what you want to know)

E) I don’t give a flying rat whether this gets done or not

 

A) Yes, we should do an RSA document now.  These are needed now.  Other 
algorithms can come later and be registered then.

 

2) If the work is adopted, where should it be done?

 

A) Here in COSE (we’ll keep the group open for this item)

B) In other working group (please specify where; note that ACE is a possible 
option)

C) I need more information (ask what you want to know)

D) I don’t give a flying rat where this happens

 

A) Here in COSE (we’ll keep the group open for this item)

 

3) If the work is adopted, which draft is a good starting point?

 

A) Jim’s draft: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-schaad-cose-alg-01

B) Mike’s draft: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-jones-cose-rsa-00

C) Some other draft (please tell us which one it is or offer to write it 
yourself)

D) I need more information (ask what you want to know)

E) I don’t give a flying rat which document we start with

 

B) Mike’s draft: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-jones-cose-rsa-00 because it 
already has the numeric assignments in place and doesn’t have any other 
algorithms besides the RSA algorithms

The numeric assignments are wrong as I have reordered the set of algorithms 
after the fork occurred.

Jim

 

 

 

We’re going to keep this thread open for two weeks at the AD’s request, and the 
chairs will try to make a consensus call at the end of that time period.

 

Thank you,

 

 — Justin & Kepeng, your COSE chairs
