Re: draft-ietf-pkix-ipki-ecdsa-02.txt



Given that RFC 2459 must be updated, I suggest that these specification be folded into the updated RFC 2459. I do not think that a separate document adds value.

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
Representation of Elliptic Curve Digital Signature
Algorithm (ECDSA) Keys and Signatures in Internet
X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Certificates
Author(s) : L. Bassham, D. Johnson, W. Polk
Filename : draft-ietf-pkix-ipki-ecdsa-02.txt
Pages : 15
Date : 22-Oct-99

This is the third draft of a profile for specification of Elliptic
Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) keys and signatures in
Internet Public Key Infrastructure X.509 certificates and certificate
revocation lists. This specification is an addendum to RFC 2459;
implementations must also conform to RFC 2459. In addition, this
document references ANSI X9.62 for the specification of the ECDSA
algorithm. This specification only addresses the format of ECDSA
keys and signatures. Please send comments on this document to the
ietf-pkix@imc.org mail list.
