I will raise the same issue that I did during the working group
(https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/cose/6SpNYAD0YC0fTM0dOA7MZ3fnqqo/ is
the first time).  The messages sent over to CFRG did not receive a positive
response for the IETF recommending it
(https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/cfrg/iuRak1_HFZ33oWDWPl7KbvZHC0k/
among others).

I believe that the IESG needs to debate if this document should be the one
which makes the secp256k1 curve a recommended IETF curve to use.

Subject: [COSE] Last Call: <draft-ietf-cose-webauthn-algorithms-05.txt>
(COSE and JOSE Registrations for WebAuthn Algorithms) to Proposed Standard


The IESG has received a request from the CBOR Object Signing and Encryption
WG (cose) to consider the following document: - 'COSE and JOSE Registrations
for WebAuthn Algorithms'
  <draft-ietf-cose-webauthn-algorithms-05.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
last-call@xxxxxxxx mailing lists by 2020-05-27. Exceptionally, comments may
be sent to iesg@xxxxxxxx instead. In either case, please retain the
beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract


   The W3C Web Authentication (WebAuthn) specification and the FIDO
   Alliance Client to Authenticator Protocol (CTAP) specification use
   CBOR Object Signing and Encryption (COSE) algorithm identifiers.
   This specification registers the following algorithms in the IANA
   "COSE Algorithms" registry, which are used by WebAuthn and CTAP
   implementations: RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 using SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512,
   and SHA-1, and ECDSA using the secp256k1 curve and SHA-256.  It
   registers the secp256k1 elliptic curve in the IANA "COSE Elliptic
   Curves" registry.  Also, for use with JSON Object Signing and
   Encryption (JOSE), it registers the algorithm ECDSA using the
   secp256k1 curve and SHA-256 in the IANA "JSON Web Signature and
   Encryption Algorithms" registry and the secp256k1 elliptic curve in
   the IANA "JSON Web Key Elliptic Curve" registry.
