Other certs extension





We briefly discussed this draft [1] in Philadelphia where
there was some support for taking it on as a WG item, as
well as some concern. I've just posted an update to the
draft that I hope might mitigate some of the concerns
expressed.

At the meeting, we agreed to discuss it on the list,
i.e. to discuss whether or not to make it a PKIX WG item,
and if so, whether it ought be experimental track or
whatever.

FWIW, I think it'd be a fine PKIX draft, and reckon
experimental is right unless its adopted for some
interesting application, which I don't see happening
right now.

So - should this be a PKIX draft? And if so, aiming
at what kind of RFC?

Cheers,
Stephen.

PS: Comments on the content are, of course, also much
appreciated. (And its still only 7 pages, incl. cruft:-)
