Hi

I almost feel like I'm asking for trouble after the roast that Dan went through, but some on this list might want to consider another PAKE going through an IETF working group.

HTTP-Auth is making experimental authentication mechanisms for the HTTP layer. One of those is a PAKE. If people here on the CFRG list would like to comment on it, that would be great. We can have some discussion here, but ultimately, comments criticisms and suggestions should go to the HTTP-auth list (details below).

The draft in question is called "Mutual Authentication Protocol for HTTP".

Link: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-httpauth-mutual-01

Yoav
co-chair of HTTP-Auth
