This version addresses some comments I got from Russ after WG LC:
clarification of text for id-ecPublicKey parameters, some internal
paragraph references, being more explicit about where the ephemeral
key, and fixing some of the SMIME Capabilities. It also includes one
comment from Maxim about the digest algorithm being the same as the one
named in the signature alg.

Title : Use of Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) Algorithms
in Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS)
Author(s) : S. Turner, D. Brown
Filename : draft-ietf-smime-3278bis-06.txt

This document describes how to use Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC)
public-key algorithms in the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS). The
ECC algorithms support the creation of digital signatures and the
exchange of keys to encrypt or authenticate content. The definition
of the algorithm processing is based on the NIST FIPS 186-3 for
digital signature, NIST SP800-56A and SEC1 for key agreement, RFC
3370 and RFC 3565 for key wrap and content encryption, NIST FIPS 180-
3 for message digest, SEC1 for key derivation, and RFC 2104 and RFC
4231 for message authentication code standards. This document
obsoletes RFC 3278.
