As part of looking at the issues of using CWTs for this purpose I did some more reading of the document. I am having a problem with the understanding the reasons for using JWT as opposed to just saying that you are going to use JWS and JWE. There is nothing in this section that I can see that points to a reason to be using JWTs as the carrier. What am I missing? Jim
