| IANA expert review comments | Expert comments: OIDs have been approved. JOSE experts had approved version 12, but new reviews are pending. A COSE expert writes that he hasn't seen a detailed response to his February review and adds, "As I remember the overall conclusion the COSE WG meeting Feb 17 confirmed that registrations should follow current practice, and that, e.g., ES256K is an exception not to be followed." |

Abstract
This document specifies how to represent Montgomery curves and (twisted) Edwards curves as curves in short-Weierstrass form and illustrates how this can be used to carry out elliptic curve computations leveraging existing implementations and specifications of, e.g., ECDSA and ECDH using NIST prime curves. We also provide extensive background material that may be useful for implementers of elliptic curve cryptography.
