Subject: JOSE -28 and JWT -22 drafts incorporating additional AD feedback

Updated JOSE and JWT drafts have been released that incorporate additional 
wording improvements in places suggested by Kathleen Moriarty.  Most of the 
changes were rewording and reorganization of the Security Considerations 
sections.  An explanation of when applications typically would and would not 
use the typ and cty header parameters was added.  The one normative change was 
to specify the use of PKCS #7 padding with AES CBC, rather than PKCS #5 - a 
correction pointed out by Shaun Cooley. (PKCS #7 is a superset of PKCS #5, and 
is appropriate for the 16 octet blocks used by AES CBC.)  No breaking changes 
were made.

The specifications are available at:

*         http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-jose-json-web-signature-28

*         http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-jose-json-web-encryption-28
