Hi Phillip,
I read through your draft and it was quite interesting. For DECADE, are you proposing to use your scheme for the naming of DECADE objects or for some other purpose? Please excuse me if the question had already been discussed as I must have missed it.

[This needs a security consideration of course] I guess I should have added the acknowledgements section as well. Stephen and I have had discussions off list. If all goes well this should be the last version of this draft before we get to a merge. The outcome that seems to be most likely to suit people's needs would be to have two drafts. The first would just have the core syntax and security considerations for using digest identifiers. The second would have all the interesting stuff link locators and encryption and stuff. Content-type would likely be in the second. I am going off to write some code. -- Website: http://hallambaker.com/ _______________________________________________ decade mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/decade _______________________________________________ websec mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/websec
