Simon, Your response matches what I was about to say in response to PHB. How a public key carried in a cert is employed for key agreement is the job of a WG that defines how to use the key. It is not a topic for discussion in PKIX. Steve >> I strongly oppose any new crypto that does not include a fix for the >> ephemeral keygen. > How is that concern relevant for a new PKIX signature/publickey > algorithm? I would assume this is relevant for TLS, OpenPGP, CMS, or > other higher level protocols, but I don't follow how anything could be > done at the PKIX level to help here. Can you elaborate please? > > /Simon > >
