Jim,

I agree with you and Denis that this is really a PKIX matter, vs. an 
S/MIME matter. However, I had several problems with Peter bringing 
this in as a WG item:
	- we already have OCSP and OCSPv2 has been worked on

	- this protocol goes beyond the OCSP semantics to provide 
delegated cert (not cert path) validation. we have just agreed to 
adopt SCVP for delegated cert path validation, and I was worried that 
this overlap would conflict with SCVP

	- PKIX has been told to not take on new work items
