> Technical Summary
>
> 	This is a profile of RFC 5280 (PKIX format) that is specific to
> 	the United States National Security Agency's Suite B Cryptography
> 	specification. In essence, it profiles RFC 5280 down to meet the
> 	Suite B requirements.
>
> Working Group Summary
>
> 	The document was announced multiple times on the PKIX WG mailing
> 	list, and some off-list comments were sent to the document
> 	authors. There was also a short presentation on the document at
> 	IETF 74. It was not appropriate to discuss it in the WG itself.
>
> Document Quality
>
> 	It is expected that this document will be widely adopted by
> 	vendors for the organization that wrote this profile. Most if not
> 	all of the algorithms specified in this profile are already in at
> 	least one popular open-source package.
