RFC Editor Note
The IESG has not found any conflict between this document and IETF
work.
This document specifies an ASN.1 arc, ecStdCurvesAndGeneration, in
section 4.1. The IESG believes the document would benefit from
adding a section analogous to IANA considerations describing how
new OIDs will be registered in the future.
