Hi Carsten, I suspect Laurence is sending this email because of his work on EAT. I am arguing that an attempt to improve the CDDL for the mentioned specs will not lead to any improvement at all because the problem is elsewhere. I am saying that because I have just spent many hours reading the EAT spec.

If I guess about the definition of "interoperable spec” you are using here, ASCII is not an interoperable spec either - you still have to agree on what the text means… Still, ASCII was kind of useful as the basis for a lot of interoperability, I think. I think the point here was to shape some CDDL that makes it easier to talk about the way a more specific (interoperable?) spec uses COSE (which does have CDDL, just not in a way that usually can be integrated as-is to express the additional constraints a COSE-using specification typically makes).
