Thank you, Geoff. We'll definitely cover this in the meeting on Wednesday.

Can you tell me/us what the relationship is between the draft draft-huston-sidr-keyroll-00.txt you mention below and the recently announced draft:


A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.

        Title           : CA Key Rollover in the RPKI
        Author(s)       : G. Huston, et al.
        Filename        : draft-huston-sidr-aao-profile-0-keyroll-00.txt
        Pages           : 8
        Date            : 2010-07-26

This document describes an algorithm to allow an entity who
undertakes the role of a Certification Authority in the Resource
Public Key Infrastructure to perform a rollover of its key pair.
This document also notes the requirements placed on Relying Parties
who maintain a local cache of the objects that have been published in
the distributed Resource Public Key Infrastructure repository
publication structure.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-huston-sidr-aao-profile-0-keyroll-00.txt



I'm thinking cut-and-paste error in creating the new draft name, but that's just me.

- Key roll-over algorithm

Our software currently implements a specific way to do roll-overs. At
the time we implemented this it wasn't 100% clear to us how this
*should* be done, and indeed whether there should be some prescribed way
to do this.

I believe that we need to have a single, prescribed way to do this; each CA 
needs to know what is expected of it by its subordinate CAs and by all RPs. I 
believe we should have a separate document that clearly articulates what a CA 
is required to do. There are CA-local aspects to this procedure, as Geoff's 
text notes.  The parameters for those belong in the CPS for the CA. The current 
description is not normative and I think that needs to change.



You are proposing that the procedure as described in section 8 of  
draft-ietf-sidr-res-certs-18.txt be placed into a normative form in its own 
document?


In collaboration with George Michaelson and Steve Kent, we have lifted out 
section 8 of draft-ietf-sidr-res-certs-18.txt and placed into a normative form 
in its own document. This is in the drafts repository as 
draft-huston-sidr-keyroll-00.txt.

I would like to request via the WG chairs that the WG adopt this document as a 
WG document.

Thank you

 Geoff
