I found Neil's concerns compelling. For better or worse, JOSE uses "polymorphic" algorithm identifiers and that's the way things have worked for a long time. The Working Group was warned that this was not a good idea at the time, but rough consensus landed in the "polymorphic" camp and that's what the ecosystem does today. Adding more options to support both "polymorphic" and "fully specified" approaches creates additional complexity that will lead to interoperability failures. Don't complicate the ecosystem more than it already is. I do not support the adoption of this draft for the reasons Neil mentioned as well as the reasons stated above. -- manu -- Manu Sporny - https://www.linkedin.com/in/manusporny/ Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc. https://www.digitalbazaar.com/ _______________________________________________ jose mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/jose
