I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-pkix-roadmap-09.txt



A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Public-Key Infrastructure (X.509) Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure:Roadmap
	Author(s)	: A. Arsenault, S. Turner
	Filename	: draft-ietf-pkix-roadmap-09.txt
	Pages		: 55
	Date		: 26-Jul-02
	
This document provides an overview or 'roadmap' of the work done by 
the IETF PKIX working group. It describes some of the terminology 
used in the working group's documents, and the theory behind an 
X.509-based Public Key Infrastructure, Privilege Management 
Infrastructure (PMI), and Time Stamping and Data Certification 
Infrastructures. It identifies each document developed by the PKIX 
working group, and describes the relationships among the various 
documents. It also provides advice to would-be PKIX implementors 
about some of the issues discussed at length during PKIX development, 
in hopes of making it easier to build implementations that will 
actually interoperate.

In the body type:

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
