[jose] Re: Do you need the JWP JSON Serialization?

[Michael Jones <[e-mail]>]

Thanks for your view, Bret.  What is your use case?  Specifically, is there something you plan to represent as a JWP that you can’t using the Compact Serialization?  If so, what?

Our motivation is to have a single JSON serialization, like JWT does, to increase interoperability.

                                                                Thanks,
                                                                -- Mike

Yes, to JSON serialization.

Thanks

I’m writing to ask whether any of you have a use case that requires the JSON Web Proof JSON Serialization? Unless concrete reasons are provided to keep it, we propose to make the Compact Serialization the only JSON Serialization for JWPs.  This is being tracked at https://github.com/ietf-wg-jose/json-web-proof/issues/100.

Responses saying “I don’t need the JSON Serialization” are also welcomed.

(A CBOR serialization is planned of course – something we hope to create before IETF 121 in Dublin, building on the work to use binary fields values in computations that we did prior to Vancouver.)
