Hi Joel,

> Michael, to quickly reply to your explicit question: the new draft was posted before the IETF 108 deadline on 2020-07-13, which is also before the expiry dates of the three different drafts that are now combined. (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-mattsson-cose-cbor-cert-compress/ )

That draft says in https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-mattsson-cose-cbor-cert-compress/ that it Replaces		draft-raza-ace-cbor-certificates, draft-mattsson-tls-cbor-cert-compress

What is the third draft?

> Another observation is that while our starting point has been to encode rfc7925 compliant certificates, we hope to make the proposal more future proof by allowing new algorithms also deemed suitable for constrained environments. With that target, we think it is possible to exclude RSA on the list of supported algorithms.

Supported for what…

The chain may still have RSA certificates in it.
