The SUIT WG needs this draft to support firmware encryption. As an author, you will not be surprised that I support adoption, and obviously, I will continue to work on it.
 
Without this the algorithm registrations in this draft, it will not be possible to use COSE for encryption of firmware images on IoT devices.
