Technical Summary

   This memo updates the registry of properties in
   Authentication-Results: message header fields to allow
   a multiple-result report to distinguish among one or more
   cryptographic signatures on a message, thus associating
   specific results with the signatures they represent.

Working Group Summary

   This is an Individual Submission. Nothing worth noting.

Document Quality
       
   There is one implementation of the spec. The document simply adds
   one optional item to the authentication-results header field, and
   is a low-risk change.

   Barry Leiba is the Document Shepherd for this document.
