Thanks very much, Eric.

As we promised in Yokohama, the chairs of the COSE working group are currently running a consensus call thread about this very topic, and I’d encourage others to join that discussion. The thread starts here:

The claims in a CWT are encoded in the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR) and CBOR Object Signing and Encryption (COSE) is used for added application layer security protection.  A claim is a piece of information asserted about a subject and is represented as a name/value pair consisting of a claim name and a claim value."
