Body |
ITU-T SG17, Security, thanks IETF Security Area for the liaison response about our draft Recommendation ITU-T X.cms. The main reason for the development of X.cms is to have an ITU-T Recommendation containing all the ASN.1 modules which are needed to implement Cryptographic Message Syntax with no obsolete ASN.1 features like “ANY DEFINED BY”. For ITU-T to make references, we need CMS with ASN.1 specifications conform to the in force Edition of Rec. ITU-T X.680 series. We decided to postpone the Consent of draft Recommendation ITU-T X.cms to have the time to investigate the possibility to have an updated IETF RFC that fulfils our requirements. Our ASN.1 experts offer to participate in the work on producing that IETF RFC. |
