The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Storing Certificates in the Domain Name System (DNS) ' <draft-ietf-dnsext-rfc2538bis-09.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the DNS Extensions Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Margaret Wasserman and Mark Townsley. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dnsext-rfc2538bis-09.txt Technical Summary This document describes how to store cryptographic public keys in RR records. It updates RFC2538 by clarifying the format and handling of OpenPGP public keys, clarifying representation issues, aligning the document with DNSSECbis terminology and clarifying how owner names need to be (re)constructed for specific types of public keys. Working Group Summary This document is a work item of the DNSEXT WG. For IESG review it may be useful to know that the document Editor clearly documented the editorial history of the document on: http://josefsson.org/rfc2538bis/ Protocol Quality RFC2538 has been implemented. Some of the problems discovered during implementation of RFC2538 have been addressed in this document. It was the intention of the working group to also supply an interoperability report so that this document could advance RFC2538 up the standards track. Unfortunately the WG could not draft volunteers. It is the intention that this document obsoletes 2538 and that the specification remains at proposed standard. Note that some of the examples in this document do not coply with RFC 3330. Those examples were taken verbatim from RFC 2538 and have been maintained for consistency. This document was reviewed for the IESG by Margaret Wasserman. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
