IETF JOSE WG seeking review of drafts

Hi Web Payments,

The IETF JOSE working group is seeking reviews of some final drafts.
https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-jones-jose-jws-signing-input-options-00.txt
might address some of the concern about developer-readability of JWS I
heard expressed in NYC, since it proposes un-base64-encoded payloads.

Would anyone be available to review this draft to provide comments to
that WG? I sent the below ping to their list.

Hi,

I'm sending draft-jones-jose-jws-signing-input-options draft to the W3C
Web Payments Interest Group for reviews, as some participants there have
expressed interest in a more developer-readable method for signed linked
data.

The options include: 1) adopt as working group drafts; 2) ask for AD sponsorship of individual drafts; or 3) recommend that they not be published. Please express your thoughts on what we should do with these drafts. Jim, Kathleen, and I would like to make a decision in the Prague timeframe, so please respond by 15 July.
