I've updated the JSON Web Key (JWK) Thumbprint specification to incorporate the 
JOSE working group feedback on the -00 draft from IETF 
90<http://www.ietf.org/meeting/90/>.  The two changes were:

*        Said that the result is undefined if characters requiring escaping are 
needed in the hash input.

*        Added instructions for representing integer numeric values in the hash 
input.

If a canonical JSON representation standard is ever adopted, this specification 
could be revised to use it, resulting in unambiguous definitions for those 
values (which are unlikely to ever occur in JWKs) as well.  (Defining a 
complete canonical JSON representation is very much out of scope for this work!)

The specification is available at:

*        http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-jones-jose-jwk-thumbprint-01

An HTML formatted version is also available at:

*        https://self-issued.info/docs/draft-jones-jose-jwk-thumbprint-01.html

                                                            -- Mike

P.S.  This notice was also posted at http://self-issued.info/?p=1259 and as
