[openpgp] a new draft overlapping the WG draft

[Stephen Farrell <[e-mail]>]

Hi all,

It's come to our attention that a new draft [1] has been
published that basically aims to be an alternative to the
WG draft. [2] As the main proponent of [1] (Werner) is
associated with an important implementation and has been a
co-author on the WG draft, we figured this needs a bit of
consideration as a new fact for the wG to consider.

As, you'll note, there are overlapping authors on both, so
that could be confusing. Our understanding is that the main
things to note there are that Werner no longer wishes to be
a co-author for the WG draft, and that dkg does not wish to
be a co-author on Werner's new draft. But please otherwise
disregard author lists as you consider the question below.

The top level issue for the WG at this point is whether we
(a) change course to work more in line with [1], or,
(b) continue with the close-to-done WG draft [2], or,
(c) try to tread a line in between.

So, can WG participants please take a look at the diff [3]
between [1] and [2], then express your opinions as to which
of the actions a, b or c you think the WG should take. (In
the case of option (c), please also provide further detail.)

Please provide that feedback before October 7th so we leave
time time for publishing new drafts before IETF-115. (Though
it's also possible we might need a real-time discussion of
this topic at IETF-115 if WG consensus isn't clear by Oct 7.)

Thanks,
Stephen and DKG.
