Hi everyone! FYI:
I submitted an updated version of this document a few weeks ago. The
changes since -01 are small: A new "preference" field has been added,
to signal whether the sender wish that e-mail should be signed,
encrypted or both.
Given previous discussions, I feel that we won't be able to reach
consensus on a "supports" token, to signal preference between
PGP/MIME, inline PGP (or even a combined PGP+MIME mode), so I am will
drop it altogether unless someone proposes text. The problem in
proposing text is that there is no specifications, at least that I
know about, that describe how OpenPGP is used in e-mail, except for
PGP/MIME. And no, RFC 2440 is not sufficient, as it doesn't describe
interaction with non-ASCII, format=flowed, attachments, UseNet
signatures and perhaps other things that I forget.
The remaining issue is to fix the ABNF schema. Once that is finished,
I will ask the IESG to publish this as an individual draft.
Thanks,
Simon
