Lynn,

I appreciate your fondness for cert-less public key use; after all, the
model you are describing is yours, submitted to an ANSI X.9 committee.  And
a brief discussion of it is OK too, but since the charter of the PKIX WG
focuses on the use of X.509 certificates in the Internet, extended
discussion of your cert-less model is hardly within the scope of the WG
list.
