Re: [webauthn] Remove attestation specification from spec

But the spec does not provide sufficient information on the 
attestation formats.  For instance, the SafetyNet attestation links to
 a webpage hosted outside of the W3C, and in my opinion describes a 
proprietary format (e.g. there is no description how the boolean 
"ctsProfileMatch" is determined).  I don't see a purpose in providing 
descriptions of proprietary attestation formats in the specification -
 that can be done via a registry (pointing to an outside specification
 if necessary).  

Keeping the packed attestation in the spec is fine, as it is 
fully-defined in the WebAuthn specification.  The other stuff can go 
in a registry.
