The Proof-of-Possession Key Semantics for JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) specification 
is now RFC 7800<http://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc7800> - an IETF standard. The 
abstract describes the specification as:

This specification describes how to declare in a JSON Web Token (JWT) that the 
presenter of the JWT possesses a particular proof-of-possession key and how the 
recipient can cryptographically confirm proof of possession of the key by the 
presenter. Being able to prove possession of a key is also sometimes described 
as the presenter being a holder-of-key.
