The IESG has received a request from an individual submitter to consider the following document: - 'Diffie-Hellman Proof-of-Possession Algorithms' <draft-schaad-pkix-rfc2875-bis-03.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2013-01-02. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document describes two methods for producing an integrity check value from a Diffie-Hellman key pair and one method for producing an integrity check value from an Elliptic Curve key pair. This behavior is needed for such operations as creating the signature of a PKCS #10 certification request. These algorithms are designed to provide a proof-of-possession rather than general purpose signing. This document obsoletes RFC 2875. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-schaad-pkix-rfc2875-bis/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-schaad-pkix-rfc2875-bis/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
