John;

Actually, the [x942] reference points to:

[x942] E. Rescorla, "Diffie-Hellman Key Agreement Method",
draft-ietf-smime-x942-0X.txt, work in progress.

Which was the Internet Draft for RFC 2631, not the X9.42 draft.  All of the
references are being updated to point to the appropriate RFCs.

        Robert.

xtRobert,

My concerns about alignment and attribution with the X9.42 draft stated
recently on the mailing list are applicable here.  I suggest replacing
[x942] with [RFC2631], or something similar. RFC 2631 is currently, and
presumably will remain, the normative reference; not the ANSI draft.  Even
if X9.42 ever becomes a standard, RFC2631 will continue to profile or
otherwise approximate it but still remain the normative reference.
