Mike:
I think that I did respond to Robert's question. At IETF 53, I gave
a presentation on this subject. You can see the slides at
http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/02mar/slides/smime-1/index.html.

It's not clear to me
that there is consensus on this path (unfortunately, there seemed to be
no reaction on either side to this email) as reflected in the latest
version of the Charter.
I'd like to re-iterate Robert's concerns (from his e-mail of
04/19/2002) and ask the fundamental question: Why are we even considering
KEM when we already have a sufficient solution with OAEP?

Is the WG consensus that RSA-OAEP, RSA-KEM, and AES should
be in separate,
independent documents. This would allow AES to be used
with any of the key
management techniques?
