Although TRANS is set to wind down without really looking beyond 6962-bis, the
original Charter also envisaged exploring
"mechanisms and techniques that allow cryptographically verifiable logs to be
deployed to improve the security of protocols other
than HTTP over TLS, for example SMTP/TLS or software distribution", and this
was a consideration when we planned the
(sub-)registries that 6962-bis requests to be created. Perhaps there will be
renewed interest in exploring such things in the
future, and if so, it's conceivable that folks will want to reuse mechanisms
from 6962-bis and reuse the (sub-)registries.
So I would prefer to name the new, main registry "Public Notary Transparency"
(the full name of this WG -
see https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/trans), and either (i) strip the "CT "
prefix from the sub-registry names or (ii) change the
prefix from "CT " to "Transparency ".
Does that make sense?
(no hats on)
It makes sense to me.
