3. Section 2.5.2 This is a politics question and one I am not capable of
deciding. Do we need to change from using the IMC as the registration agent
for the OIDs of SMIMECapabilites? I don't see any techincal reasons to
change this at this point in time. I don't see IMC as disappearing any time
soon and from what I hear it would be much faster to get updates than using
IANA. But I don't know if the IESG will be willing to leave this as it is.
IMC is not the registration agent for the S/MIME working group. RSADSI
gave an arc to the working group when they released the S/MIME v2 and
related specifications. I have performed the registration actions for that
arc. That arc belongs to the IETF S/MIME WG.
IMC has been distributing information about the arc. Paul has been very
helpful in distributing this information. TheS/MIME WG has geatly benifited
from the IMC Web site.
