The -27 drafts of the JOSE specs (JWS, JWE, JWK, & JWA) and the -21 draft of 
the JWT spec have been posted that incorporate feedback received from our 
security area director, Kathleen Moriarty.  The one normative change was to add 
certificate thumbprint parameters using SHA-256 as the hash function.  There 
were no breaking changes.  A number of additional security considerations were 
added across the drafts.  An example JWK was added early in the JWK draft 
(paralleling the early examples in the JWS, JWE, and JWT drafts).  Several 
algorithm cross-reference entries were updated in the JWA draft.  A number of 
other editorial improvements were also applied.

The specifications are available at:
