Re: [COSE] [Ace] Call for adoption for draft-wahlstroem-ace-cbor-web-token-00

Or keep the CBOR Web Token (CWT) for two major reasons:
- To show the very close relationship to JWT. It relies heavily on JWT and
it's iana registry. It is essentially a JWT but in CBOR/COSE instead of
JSON/JOSE.
- I would not say that JWT is the only format that works for the web, and
it's even used in other, non-traditional, web protocols. That means I don't
have a problem with the W in CWT at all. Why would JSON be the only web
protocol?

Then we also have one smaller (a lot smaller) reason, it's the fact that it
can be called "cot" just like JWT is called a "jot" and I figured that our
"cozy chairs" would very much like that fact because then it's essentially
a "cozy cot" :)
