Re: Commitment request from Mozilla and/or Microsoft

Ryan,  thanks for reminding the reasons why we staid locked in the past. I think the situation has changed now, due to Mozilla and Microsoft being more involvment.
So yes, Jim, we will try to answer your question, as a group,  based on implementers feedback, by email, and/or during our next call scheduled on the 4th of april.

Regards,
Virginie

Jim,

Is there a reason you focused only on ECDSA and ECDH, rather than RSA (PKCS#1 v1.5, PSS, and OAEP)?

Regardless of scope, the question you pose has been repeatedly asked and left unanswered for several months. I appreciate the new calls for it, but we are precisely in this position because of the multiple unanswered calls in the past, on the list, from the chair, and from other implementors.
