Hello HTTP Working Group, I've somewhat inadvertently found myself working on this draft https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-bdc-something-something-certificate/, which aspires to define a "Client-Cert" HTTP header field that allows a TLS terminating reverse proxy to convey information about the client certificate of a mutually-authenticated TLS connection to an origin server in a common and predictable manner. I presented the concept <https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/107/materials/slides-107-secdispatch-client-cert-http-header-00> at the recent virtual IETF 107 secdispatch meeting <https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/107/materials/minutes-107-secdispatch-00> and the outcome from that was basically that there seems to be some interest in pursuing the work and the suggestion that the conversation be taken to the HTTPbis WG (and also keep TLS WG involved - presumably if the work progresses). And that's what brings me here. I also hope to get a little bit of time at one of the upcoming virtual interims to present/discuss the draft.
