Re: OpenPGP Minutes / Quick Summary


How about emailing the draft to this list without submitting it
to the I-D editor?  Let people read it on the list and we'll see
if there is interest in resurrecting it.

Quoting Thomas Roessler <roessler@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:


From the minutes of the OpenPGP meeting in Montreal:


Thomas Roessler gave a history of the Multiple Signature Draft.
It's an extension to RFC1847 to allow the "signature" portion
of the message to be a "multipart/mixed" and have a set of
signatures on the signed data instead of just a single
signature.  This signature set could be a combination of
OpenPGP and e.g. S/MIME signatures.

As a status update, I've dug out the (quite short) draft from
that old backup; before re-submitting it, I'm waiting for my
co-authors from back then to give me new contact information and
to ok submitting with the new IETF IPR boilerplate.


I haven't heard back from either Derek (whose contact information
I'd need), nor my co-authors from back then.

I'm tempted to consider my action item from Montreal done without
resurrecting this draft, and to suggest dropping this from the
charter -- unless there's a sudden surge of interest.
