When the JOSE WG was reopened in January 2023, the proponents and AD forgot to add charter scope to handle maintenance of prior JOSE work.  This charter revision adds this scope.

I understand this is not part of the update, but just noticing it now...

This charter: 

> Standards Track document(s) specifying how to use existing cryptographic algorithms and defining their algorithm identifiers. The working group will not invent new cryptographic algorithms.
> ...
> Standards Track document(s) defining CBOR-based representations corresponding to all the above, building upon the COSE and CWT specifications in the same way that the above build on JOSE and JWT.

COSE charter:

> The COSE working group will deal with two types of documents going forward:
> Documents that describe the use of cryptographic algorithms in COSE.

This leads me to think there is a small overlap about COSE. That should not be a big problem, but at least I think it would be good to list COSE as one of the working groups JOSE should coordinate with.

Just one suggestion about the following text: `The WG will evaluate, and potentially adopt, documents dealing with algorithms that would fit the criteria of being IETF consensus algorithms.`

Let's clarify that those documents will have an intended status of "proposed standards" as opposed to other algorithms that are clearly identified as "informational".
