Re: [httpauth] Mutual authentication proposal

[Yutaka OIWA <[e-mail]>]

I put some document about some design decisions of
our protocol on the wiki.

It is available from
http://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/httpbis/trac/wiki/HttpAuthProposals/MutualAuth/LayeringDesigns

Hope this will help you understanding how the things work.
