The IESG has received a request from the Limited Additional Mechanisms for
PKIX and SMIME WG (lamps) to consider the following document: - 'Use of the
HSS/LMS Hash-based Signature Algorithm in the Cryptographic
   Message Syntax (CMS)'
  <draft-ietf-lamps-cms-hash-sig-08.txt> as Proposed Standard

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final
comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
[email protected] mailing lists by 2019-08-01. Exceptionally, comments may be
sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of
the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract


   This document specifies the conventions for using the the HSS/LMS
   hash-based signature algorithm with the Cryptographic Message Syntax
   (CMS).  In addition, the algorithm identifier and public key syntax
   are provided.  The HSS/LMS algorithm is one form of hash-based
   digital signature; it is described in RFC 8554.
