Subject: [jose] JOSE -19 drafts intended for Working Group Last Call

JSON Object Signing and Encryption (JOSE) -19 drafts have been published that 
address all my remaining to-do items for the open issues.  I believe the 
remainder of the issues are either ready to close because of actions already 
taken in the drafts (the majority of them), require further input to identify 
any specific remaining proposed actions, if any (a few of them), or will be 
considered during Working Group Last Call (a few of them).  Only editorial 
changes and one addition were made - no breaking changes.

In short, I believe I have addressed everything needed to bring us to Working 
Group Last Call for the JWS, JWE, JWK, and JWA specs.  (Chairs and Sean, please 
let me know whether you agree or whether you believe anything else remains to 
be done before WGLC.)

The one addition was to add the optional "use_details" JWK field, as discussed 
on the JOSE list and the WebCrypto list.  While I realize that this proposal 
hasn't gotten much review yet (I believe due to the holidays), I wanted to get 
it in so people can review it in context, and as a concrete step towards 
meeting a perceived need for additional JWK functionality from the WebCrypto 
working group.  It's cleanly separable from the rest of the spec, so if the 
JOSE WG ends up hating it, we can always take it back out and possibly move it 
to a separate spec.  But at least we have a concrete write-up of it now to 
review.

I also made a one-paragraph change to the JSON Web Token (JWT) spec to 
reference text in JWE, rather than duplicating it in JWT.

See the History entries for details of the (small number of) changes made.
