Re: [websec] Fwd: New Version Notification for draft-ietf-websec-key-pinning-03.txt

Hi Chris.

Good to see this. Do you intend to publish another revision by the draft submission cutoff date next Monday?

Or would you like us to discuss these issues to resolve at the meeting in Atlanta?

Thanks

Yoav
