Hiya,

I saw the presentation and scanned the draft and support
adoption on the basis that this could be useful before
any certificates using PQC algorithms are in play so the
target of an experimental RFC is fine, even moreso as I
could imagine details/codepoints changing over time as
new better compressions are found.

I could see this also being a valuable input to work that
aims to evolve PKI in the face of a potential CRQC but I
think it'd be premature to adopt on that basis alone as
that overall topic needs broader consideration (best done
IMO in a year or two and not now). In any case, I guess
the CCADB doesn't and won't have entries using PQC algs
for some time, and they might decide to handle things in
some other way themselves so I'm not sure adopting this
as a PQ scheme now actually makes sense.

IIUC it's also a bit of a pity that this'd be formally
limited to the WebPKI, being based on the CCADB. I guess
handling the pretense that nobody uses letsencrypt for
smtp/tls is probably better handled as part of another
discussion elsewhere. (One worth having though.)

Cheers,
S.

Hi all,

Based on positive feedback received during IETF 117, this email begins an adoption call 
for "Abridged Compression for WebPKI Certificates" 
(draft-jackson-tls-cert-abridge).

The datatracker page for this document can be found here:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-jackson-tls-cert-abridge/

And the GitHub repository can be found here:
https://github.com/dennisjackson/draft-jackson-tls-cert-abridge

Please indicate whether or not your support adoption of this document in its 
current state. Procedure questions raised during the WG meeting last week can 
be ironed out in the event of this item being adopted.

This call for adoption will conclude on August 16.

Thanks,
Chris, for the chairs
