[W3C Web Crypto] Call for Consensus on removing algorithms from the web API specification -> resolution

Dear all,

This is the conclusion of this call for consensus. We received some alternative suggestion on the list of algorithms to remove (aka keeping  RSA-PSS on Mozilla and google request). As such, I am suggesting that we resolve this call as follows :

We will remove from the normative part of our specification the following algorithms for not being implemented in at least 2 of the platform tested : AES-CMAC, AES-CFB, CONCAT, DH.

The action to clean up will be allocated to the editors, mark having kindly volunteering to perform that task.


Regards,
Virginie Galindo
Chair of the web crypto WG

Subject: [W3C Web Crypto] Call for Consensus on removing algorithms from the web API specification -> 20th of October

Dear all,

Following our last meeting call, we decided to remove from the normative part of our specification the following algorithms for not being implemented in at least 2 of the platform tested : RSA-PSS, AES-CMAC, AES-CFB, CONCAT, DH. Detailed discussion can be found under http://www.w3.org/2015/09/28-crypto-minutes.html.

This mail is a call for consensus to validate that decision.

Anyone objecting to that decision should make his motivated point before the 20th of October at 17:00 UTC.
If this decision is endorsed, the algorithms descriptions will be gathered in a dedicated Note.

Regards,
Virginie
Chair of the web crypto WG
