Re: [Sidrops] I-D Action: draft-ietf-sidrops-cms-signing-time-03.txt

Dear all,

Another pass was made over the text to improve the structure of the
document and complete the surgery updates to RFC 6488. The
"Implementation Status" section was also updated.

Many thanks to everyone who reviewed the document this week!

As indicated, the authors would like to move towards WGLC.

Kind regards,

Job
