Here's the template (I changed the POC from Cullen to me):
To: ietf-types@iana.org
Subject: Registration of media type application/pkcs8
These lines are not supposed to be in the RFC.
I'll remove them.
Type name: application
Subtype name: pkcs8
Required parameters: None
Optional parameters: None
Encoding considerations: binary
Security considerations: Carries a cryptographic private key
This should probably reference the Security considerations section.
I'll add this.
Interoperability considerations:
The PKCS#8 object inside this MIME type MUST be DER-encoded PrivateKeyInfo.
Published specification: --THIS SPECIFICATION--
/** RFC EDITOR: Replace "--THIS SPECIFICATION--" with the RFC # assigned to this document. **/
Applications which use this media type:
Any MIME-compliant transport
See my comment on the application/pkcs10 template.
Would something like "Applications that process asymmetric keys" suffice? Cheers, spt
