Title : Alternative Certificate Formats for the PKIX Certificate
Management Protocols

The PKIX (Public-Key Infrastructure (X.509)) Working Group of the
IETF (The Internet Engineering Task Force) has defined a number of
certificate management protocols. These protocols are primarily
focused on X.509v3 public-key certificates. However, it is sometimes
desirable to manage certificates in alternative formats as well.
This document specifies how such certificates may be requested using
the CRMF (Certificate Request Message Format) syntax that is used by
several different protocols. It also explains how alternative
certificate formats may be incorporated into such popular protocols
as PKIX-CMP (PKIX Certificate Management Protocol) and CMC
(Certificate Management Messages over CMS).

In the body type:

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
