The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Simple Public Key Infrastructure (SPKI) S-Expressions' (draft-rivest-sexp-13.txt) as Informational RFC
This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Murray Kucherawy. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-rivest-sexp/ Technical Summary This memo specifies the data structure representation that was devised to support Simple Public Key Infrastructure (SPKI, RFC 2692) certificates with the intent that it be more widely applicable. It has been and is being used elsewhere. There are multiple implementations in a variety of programming languages. Uses of this representation are referred to in this document as "S-expressions". This memo makes precise the encodings of these SPKI S-expressions: it gives a "canonical form" for them, describes two "transport" representations, and also describe an "advanced" format for display to people. Working Group Summary This was not the product of a working group. An extended (standard) Last Call and prior discussion on ART lists that appear to have been resolved. Document Quality The document specifies a format already in use in some fairly old RFCs. No additional critical reviews are warranted. Personnel The Document Shepherd for this document is Marc Petit-Huguenin. The Responsible Area Director is Murray Kucherawy. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
