I agree with John’s statement of why the implementation requirements are there.
I also agree with the suggestion that we be explicit that the implementation
requirements apply to libraries. I’ll add that to my to-do list. I’m sure an
opportunity to add that will arise sometime during IESG and IETF review.

Subject: Re: [jose] Implementation Requirements
I don't think that's meaningful but I am already happy if there is a section in
the JWA document that explains that these interoperability requirements refer
to standalone libraries.
I also think that the table for the IANA consideration section needs to make
that clear as well.

Betreff: Re: [jose] Implementation Requirements
The IESG wants to see interoperability between implementations, to do that
without dragging in discovery etc there need to be minimum feature sets of JOSE
libraries that people can count on.
A application using JOSE can elect not to support all the algorithms, but JOSE
libraries need to support the mandatory to implement algorithms.

Hi all,
I am looking at the implementation requirements of the JWA spec and I am
wondering to what deployment environment they refer they.
The JW* specs are generic building blocks and I fail to see how one can list
mandatory-to-implement algorithsms.
