Thanks to Ryan and the Chrises for getting this done. Folks, it seem to us that this working group has done as much as we can for this document. We could keep discussing this for another year, but we believe at this point this would be counter-productive.
So, we intend to send this to Barry next week. Please take the time to make sure that no huge mistakes have been added in the last two iterations. For your convenience, here are links to the diffs: http://www.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=draft-ietf-websec-key-pinning-14 http://www.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=draft-ietf-websec-key-pinning-15 Thanks again to the authors and people on the list for all the efforts. I believe we have come up with a document that is implementable and adds a scalable way to mitigate the threat of mis-issued certificates. As you know, the journey is not quite done, as we still have AD review, IETF last call, the IESG, and the RFC editor. See you all around.
