	Title           : The Compressed X.509 Certificate Format
	Author(s)       : D. McGrew, M. Pritikin
	Filename        : draft-pritikin-comp-x509-00.txt
	Pages           : 18

This note defines the Compressed X.509 Format (CXF), a compact format
for X.509 certificates and CRLs, and a way to translate between the
compact format and standard X.509 encoding.  The translation consists
of the lossless compression algorithm DEFLATE with a particular
predefined dictionary.  Protocol bindings for TLS and IKE are
designated.

This format is useful in a constrained environment, where bandwidth
and/or storage is low, and it preserves interoperability with
standards-compliant X.509 certificates and the systems for
certificate processing, issuance, and management.
