Hi Emelia,

Thank you for pointing this out. I agree that the relationship between these 
two drafts should be described more clearly. While both drafts make use of 
attestation, they address different problem statements and, consequently, 
pursue different objectives.

Draft-ietf-oauth-attestation-based-client-auth-09 focuses primarily on client 
authentication and audience blinding. It defines how a client instance presents 
a key-bound attestation alongside proof of possession to the Authorization 
Server, serving either as a primary authentication mechanism or as an 
additional security signal.

On the other hand, draft-ekahraman-oauth-attestation-authz-native-app document 
addresses a distinct layer: how verifier-issued Attestation Results are 
evaluated by the Authorization Server and how those evaluations subsequently 
influence the scopes issued to Native Applications.

I will revise the "Related Works" section in the next iteration of the draft to 
include these details and better articulate this distinction.

Best regards,

Efe
