Hello everyone,

I've started using tags 77111 and 77112 for money amounts and written a spec for them: https://liberapay.github.io/specs/cbor-money.html

I hadn't seen the previous proposal <https://j-richter.github.io/CBOR/currency.html> but it's different from mine so I think the two are complementary. That said tags 165 and 77111 do represent the same thing so 77111 could be abandoned if 165 is extended to support more use cases.

P.S. The form to register new tags is the one in <https://www.iana.org/form/protocol-assignment>, right?
