I don't think anyone is suggesting this, are they? Well, this is how I interpret your message: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-credentials/2018Nov/0001.html "Some in the group also believe that JOSE exposes cryptographic details that should not be exposed to web developers (things like x and y values of elliptic keys, for example). COSE wraps these in a binary blob that places it out of the purview of web developers, which is viewed as an advantage of COSE" To me this is utter nonsense. Anders > > -- manu >
