Several of the recent discussions on this mailing list were about how we should operate the registries created by COSE. As the draft below says, "Section 11.6 of RFC 9052 gives the Designated Experts for these registries considerable leeway”.
So I started to write up some “registration principles”, both as a memory aid for the experts, and as a way for registrants to divine what the experts are likely to decide. Of course, I didn’t get very far with so many things going on. If you skim the below and find a principle you think should be in there, drop me a note (or write a PR! [1]). This is still a trial balloon, but it already could help us discuss specific registrations and how they fulfill the principles or not. Maybe we can have a very short mention of this draft in the COSE meeting tomorrow.
