Hi all!

I have updated the draft about OpenPGP: mail header, see:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-josefsson-openpgp-mailnews-header-04.txt
http://josefsson.org/openpgp-header/

I have improved the ABNF which was the remaining open issue.

I believe the document is now ready for moving forward, so I'll approach
an AD about that.  Or is there any point in moving this forward via the
OpenPGP WG?

Comments on the document are still welcome, of course.

Thanks,
/Simon
