Re: ASN.1-SIZE floating

Darren (and friends),

I believe the intent of using MAX as a size limit is to encourage dynamic
allocation of these fields.  If the group decides that setting hard-coded
max values is more advantageous than using MAX, then I would recommend the
following limits (these are guestimates of upper limits; the guessing part
is the disadvantage of setting hard-coded maximiums):


ContentHints ::= SEQUENCE {
  contentDescription UTF8String SIZE (1..128) OPTIONAL,
  contentType ContentType }


ESSPrivacyMark ::= CHOICE {
    pString      PrintableString SIZE (1..ub-privacy-mark-length),
    utf8String   UTF8String SIZE (1..128)
}


MLReceiptPolicy ::= CHOICE {
  none [0] NULL,
  insteadOf [1] SEQUENCE SIZE (1..64) OF GeneralNames,
  inAdditionTo [2] SEQUENCE SIZE (1..64) OF GeneralNames }
