PKCS #1: RSA Cryptography Specifications Version 2.2
draft-moriarty-pkcs1-03

Received changes through RFC Editor sync (changed abstract to 'This document provides recommendations for the implementation of public-key cryptography based on the RSA algorithm, covering cryptographic primitives, encryption schemes, signature schemes with appendix, and ASN.1 syntax for representing keys and for identifying the schemes.

This document represents a republication of PKCS #1 v2.2 from RSA Laboratories' Public-Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS) series. By publishing this RFC, change control is transferred to the IETF.

This document also obsoletes RFC 3447.')

Received changes through RFC Editor sync (created alias RFC 8017, changed title to 'PKCS #1: RSA Cryptography Specifications Version 2.2', changed abstract to 'This document provides recommendations for the implementation of public-key cryptography based on the RSA algorithm, covering cryptographic primitives, encryption schemes, signature schemes with appendix, and ASN.1 syntax for representing keys and for identifying the schemes.', changed pages to 78, changed standardization level to Informational, changed state to RFC, added RFC published event at 2016-11-13, changed IESG state to RFC Published, created obsoletes relation between draft-moriarty-pkcs1 and RFC 3447)

The individual submission/AD sponsored document is an RFC'ized
version of the original PKCS document and is presented for
publication as an Informational RFC as part of the transfer of
copyright from RSA/EMC to the IETF trust. We've done with with a
bunch of other PKCS documents previously, e.g. RFC 7292, so there's
no news here. Given the history of other PKCS series documents
transferred to the IETF, publication as an Informational RFC is
appropriate and the document is marked for proposed status as
Informational. There are no IPR declarations needed. As sponsoring
AD, in addition to IETF LC, I checked with the saag list that
nobody had issues with this document.

(Via drafts-lastcall-comment@iana.org): IESG/Authors/WG Chairs:

IANA has reviewed draft-moriarty-pkcs1-01.txt, which is currently in Last Call, and has the following comments:

We understand that this document doesn't require any IANA actions.

While it's often helpful for a document's IANA Considerations section to remain in place upon publication even if there are no actions, if the authors strongly prefer to remove it, IANA does not object.

If this assessment is not accurate, please respond as soon as possible.

Thank you,
