Hi,

1.  Have draft-barnes-jose-spi remain a separate specification that could optionally also be supported by JWS and JWE implementations.

Br,

Charles Marais.

Issue #8 http://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/jose/trac/ticket/8" rel="nofollow"> http://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/jose/trac/ticket/8 proposes adding an “spi” (security parameters index) header parameter to the JWS and JWE specifications.  This modification to the JOSE formats would allow for signaling that pre-negotiated cryptographic parameters are being used, rather than including those parameters in the JWS or JWE header.  This proposal has been written up as http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-barnes-jose-spi-00" rel="nofollow">http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-barnes-jose-spi-00.

 

Which of these best describes your preferences on this issue?

1.  Have draft-barnes-jose-spi remain a separate specification that could optionally also be supported by JWS and JWE implementations.

2.  Incorporate draft-barnes-jose-spi into the JWS and JWE specifications as a mandatory feature.

3.  Incorporate draft-barnes-jose-spi into the JWS and JWE specifications as an optional feature.

4.  Another resolution (please specify in detail).

0.  I need more information to decide.

Your reply is requested by Friday, April 19th or earlier.
