I've sent a copy to the Internet-Drafts editor, too late for folks at the
IETF meeting this week to get it this way. (I know, I should have gotten it
out earlier.)
While we're waiting for it to get into the drafts directory, you can get
the new spec from:
http://www.commerce.net/information/standards/drafts/shttp.txt
I'll also arrange for some printed copies to be available at the IETF meeting.
Major changes from the June draft:
* Reorganized -- includes table of contents!
* More motivational & supporting material; 38 versus 23 pages [sorry].
* Changes to the protocol to support:
Manually distributed symmetric keys (e.g., passwords)
Kerberos
New mode for (non-signature) message authentication/integrity
Unified key naming.
Cheers,
-Allan
