The whole point of this WG is to not do ASN.1.
Yeah well, it's just a different fixed template so it's not "doing" ASN.1 at all really, or only about as much as PKCS#1 requires, which is almost nothing. And SPKI formatted export of public keys is supported directly in lots of crypto libraries, incl. WebCrypto so it's probably even less lines of code if the key was already imported/generated. And it is the same as some other protocols use, providing interop, which is also the whole point of this and other WGs I'd guess (...dude:-) S. _______________________________________________ jose mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/jose
