Request to publish ietf-draft of XML Encryption media-type registration

2002-06-05 14:21:58

I've attached an IETF draft XML Encryption media-type registration; please 
publish it. Also, this email serves to instantiate the two week discussion 
period on "ietf-types(_at_)iana(_dot_)org" .

The expected course of advancement for this specification is:
1. Publication of an IETF Draft as specified:
  ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1id-guidelines.txt
2. I will notify the security and application area directors.
3. Request publication as an Informational RFC as specified:
  ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc-editor/instructions2authors.txt
4. Ensure IANA is aware of the publication and posts the registration as 
specified:
  ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2048.txt

The changes in this specification since the last version [1] discussed on 
"ietf-xml-mime(_at_)imc(_dot_)org" include:
1. There is no redundant type parameter for the encrypted object.
2. The type only applies to XML instances in which a XML Encryption element 
is the root document.
3. Non-normative examples are enumerated for addressing the description of 
documents in which XML Encryption elements occur as non-root nodes, " XML 
documents which contain XENC element types in places other than the root 
element can be described using facilities such as [XML-schema] or 
[StLaurent]."
