I am a bit out of date as far as the current state of the PEM papers
is concerned. I just read Burt Kaliski's revised version of RFC[FORMS-ID].
Could you please help me to correct my citation list of PEM literature,
which I give below? I guess, this might be of interest for other
PEM readers as well. Thanks in advance --- Ruediger
