PKIX WG tentative agenda




Folks,

I have attached the tentative agenda for next week's PKIX sessions. As usual, we have a rather full agenda. Both days should be interesting; we'll discuss the path validation protocols on Tuesday and XML on Wednesday. In between, we'll cover the status of our twenty current I-Ds.

I am projecting a half hour for discussions on XML and PKI. So far, Phil has requested time to describe XKMS. If you would like to present under this general topic, please send me email. I will try to get everyone some time to present their views.

Thanks,

Tim Polk
PKIX WG (pkix-wg)

TUESDAY, December 12 at 1545-1645
WEDNESDAY, December 13 at 1300-1500
=================================

CHAIR: Stephen Kent <kent@bbn.com>, Tim Polk <tim.polk@nist.gov>

AGENDA:

Document Status Review Tim Polk (NIST)
      The working group has twenty current Internet-Drafts.  A number
      of documents are in various stages of Last Call.  Several others
      are ready for Last Call. (5 min.)

Delegated Path Validation Services - various
      The working group has been presented with several alternative
      proposals.  The current proposals are the Simple Certificate
      Validation Protocol (SCVP) and Delegated Path Validation drafts. 
      The WG needs to select one I-D as the PKIX path validation 
      protocol and create one standards track specification.  An
      extensive discussion is planned for this session, with
      presentations by the authors of the competing specifications 
      as well as the WG chairs.  (up to 30 min.)

Qualified Certificates Profile - Stefan Santesson (Addtrust)
      This document has been approved as a Standards track RFC and
      is currently in the editing queue.  A brief discussion of the
      status of the corresponding ETSI specification will be
      included in this update. (5 min.)

Data Validation and Certification Server - Carlisle Adams (Entrust)
      This document has been approved as a Experimental
      track RFC and is currently in the editing queue. (5 min.)  

Time Stamp Protocols (TSP) - Denis Pinkas (Bull)
      This document has been through working group Last Call and is
      currently under Area Director Review.  This status update will
      describe changes made to the TSP specification as a consequence
      of Last Call. (5 min.)

Attribute Certificate Profile - Steve Farrell (Baltimore)
      This document has been through working group Last Call and is
      currently under Area Director Review.  This status update will
      describe changes made to the Attribute Certificate Profile as
      a consequence of Last Call. (5 min.)

Technical Non-Repudiation - Tim Polk (NIST) for Tom Gindin (IBM)
      After minor changes are incorporated to address recent comments, 
      this document will be ready to progress as an Informational track
      specification. (5 min.)

Permanent Identifier - Denis Pinkas (Bull)
      This document is stable and ready for progression to RFC status.
      This discussion will center on the strategy for progressing 
      this document. (5 min.)

[*Approximate* breaking point between meetings]

Certificate and CRL Profile revisions - Russ Housley (SPYRUS) 
      This document is the follow-up to RFC 2459.  A new draft of this
      document has been published.  Hopefully, we are ready for
      Working Group Last Call.  The document will be a standards 
      Track and is expected to go to Proposed Standard. (10 min.)

Public Key Algorithms and Identifiers - Russ Housley (SPYRUS)
      This document is a companion to the Certificate and CRL Profile.
      This specification contains the algorithm-specific information,
      such as OIDs and encoding information.  This specification is 
      ready for WG Last Call and is expected to progress to Proposed
      Standard with the Certificate and CRL Profile. (5 min.)

CMP/CRMF Interoperability Results - Bob Moskowitz (ICSA Labs)
      Bob has been organizing interoperability testing for CRMF/CMP
      Implementations.  This testing will support the progression of CMP
      and CRMF to Draft standard. (10 min.)

Certificate Request Message Format (CRMF) - Carlisle Adams (Entrust) 
	This document incorporates clarifications to RFC 2511.  These 
      changes are proposed as a result of interoperability testing.  
      This specification is nearly ready for Last Call and progression
      of CRMF to Draft Standard. (5 min.) 

Certificate Management Protocol (CMP) - Carlisle Adams (Entrust)
	This document incorporates clarifications to RFC 2510.  These 
      changes are proposed as a result of interoperability testing.  
      This specification is nearly ready for Last Call and progression
      of CMP to Draft Standard. (5 min.) 

OCSPv2 and Delegated Path Discovery - Michael Myers (VeriSign)
	These documents incorporate clarifications and enhancements to
      RFC 2560 and define a new OCSP extension for path discovery.  The
      editor feels the OCSPv2 is stable and ready for progression to RFC
      status. See the following resentation. (10 min.)

Comments on OCSPv2 - Denis Pinkas (Bull)
	An alternative view on the progression of OCSPv2. (5 min.)

CP/CPS Framework - Santosh Chokhani (Cygnacom)
      An ad hoc group of PKIX and ABA members has been working on
      revisions to RFC 2527, the "Certificate Policy and Certification
      Practices Framework".  A new draft will be posted in the near
      future.  This update will describe expected changes in the 
      document. (5 min.)

PKIX Roadmap - Sean Turner (IECA)
      This document provides an overview or "roadmap" of the work
      done by the IETF PKIX working group. It defines common terms, 
      describes basic theory behind PKI, and provides an overview of 
      PKIX documents and the relationships between them.  This document
      is now fairly stable, and could be considered for progression as
      an informational RFC. (5 min.)

Operational Protocols, LDAPv3 - David Chadwick (Univ. of Salford)
      This document is the LDAPv3 analog of RFC 2559.  This document
      describes the features of LDAPv3 that are essential, or not
      required, or are optional for servers to support a PKI based
      on X.509. (5 min.) 

Additional LDAP Schema for PKIs and PMIs - David Chadwick (Salford)
      This specification is a supplement to RFC 2587, and describes
      Additional schema elements for use with LDAPv3 PKI repositories.

Attribute Certificate Acquisition Protocol - Steve Farrell (Baltimore)
      This document specifies a deliberately limited protocol for
      requesting attribute certificates from a server. (5 min.)

Repository Locator Service - Phil Hallem-Baker (VeriSign)
      This document leverages DNS and DNS SRV records to enable
      Certificate using systems to locate PKI repositories 
      based on a domain name, identify the protocols that can be
      used to access the repository, and obtain addresses for the
      servers that host the repository service.  (5 min.)

PKIX and XML - various
       The relationship of PKI and XML-based clients has been the
       subject of great discussion on the list.  As time allows, 
       we will continue that discussion.  (30-40 min.)
