[MLS] Fwd: I-D Action: draft-omara-mls-federation-00.txt

At the interim in January, the WG discussed the possibility of adopting work to address federations.  Part of that process is to consider and individual draft first and then do a WG call for adoption.  Emad promised to get a draft in before the deadline and he and Raphael met the deadline.  They did their bit so now it is time for the WG to discuss the draft.  We have tentatively allocated some time on the agenda for this draft on the assumption that it will generate some discussion based on the amount of interest at the interim.

Note that this “federation” we are talking about here is only about federating some/all of the key establishment, authentication, and confidentiality services because this would be in scope of the WG.

>   This document describes how the Messaging Layer Security (MLS) can be
>   used in a federated environment where different MLS implementations
>   can interoperate by defining the message format for user key
>   retrieval.  The document also describes some use cases where
>   federation could be useful.
