Re: Informational RFC to be: draft-adams-cmpaltcert-03.txt

The IESG has no problem with the publication of 'Alternative Certificate 
Formats for the PKIX Certificate Management Protocols' 
<draft-adams-cmpaltcert-03.txt> as an Informational RFC. 

The IESG contact person is Russ Housley.

Thank you,

The IESG Secretary

Technical Summary

  The PKIX (Public Key Infrastructure using X.509) Working Group of the
  has defined a number of certificate management protocols.  These
  protocols are primarily focused on X.509v3 public key certificates.
  However, it is sometimes desirable to manage certificates in
  alternative formats as well.  This document specifies how such
  certificates may be requested using the CRMF (Certificate Request
  Message Format) syntax that is used by several different protocols.
  It also explains how alternative certificate formats may be
  incorporated into such popular protocols as PKIX-CMP (PKIX Certificate
  Management Protocol) and CMC (Certificate Management Messages over
  CMS).
