Action Item Review

Steven reviewed the open action items.

Liaison Reports

P1800 is still working on their ballot responses.

Inter-operability Testing

Ruchi has been looking into the Digital Envelope use case, and has found issues with padding schemes related to various encryption algorithms. She has also found issues related to key_blocks and differences between the P1800 and P1076 LRM language. John commented that further discussion is needed to resolve the differences in description that arise in the two balloted LRM documents.

Ruchi also noted that implementation differences that pre-dated the IV changes also contribute to problems. John noted that we need to provide some kind of versioning to allow tools to adjust to revisions in the pragma set, and improve our chances of maintaining inter-operable tools from the recommendations. Such versioning should be forward-looking, rather than trying to characterize compatibility for past ambiguities.

License Management

Michael is looking for feedback on the reorganization of the license management white paper. He is looking into a reference implementation to find specification issues.

Key Management

Nitin is still working on the feedback from last week.
