Hi,
For those of you that are curious, 2510bis-03 and 2511bis-01 are minor revisions to the previous drafts which, I believe, address all comments received (both privately and on the list) in the past 3 months. I feel that both documents are now ready to progress.
The documents can be found at the following locations:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-pkix-rfc2510bis-03.txt
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-pkix-rfc2511bis-01.txt
The changes between rfc2510bis-02 and rfc2510bis-03 are as follows:
p.30: added a comment on the "waiting" status regarding the possible need for a polling mechanism in the transport layer and allowing the possibility of polling PKIMessages in a future version of this spec. (You might recall Magnus asking for this on the PKIX list....).
p.33: removed tag "[1]" from publicKeyMAC field (to align with syntax in RFC 2511).
p.39: changed "OCTET STRING" to "string" in comment regarding utf8Pairs ("OCTET STRING" was confusing to some people).
p.63: added a comment regarding the way in which a requester could indicate a preference for algorithm and parameters with respect to centrally-generated key pairs (Magnus also asked how this could be done and I should have given him this answer, but didn't think of it at the time...).
p.67: removed the position-dependence requirement for requests in cr and kur (at least a couple of people have asked for this on the list, including Magnus).
p.75: clarified what gets signed if the AltCertTemplate control is used (someone asked for this on the list).
p.80: (see p.30 above).
p.85: (see p.39 above).
p.86: added the certReqId field to CertStatus (I had done this in the body of the spec, but forgot to copy it to this appendix!).
The changes between rfc2511bis-00 and rfc2511bis-01 are as follows:
pp.1 and 13: changed the work affiliation for Mike Myers.
p.10: added a missing parenthesis in the second line of the comment under encValue.
p.12: added a reference to PKCS11.
p.16: changed "OCTET STRING" to "string" in comment regarding utf8Pairs ("OCTET STRING" was confusing to some people).
