This message is a periodic reminder that sacred-archive@lists.ietf.org is subscribed to the ietf-sacred mailing list. *** SEE BELOW: PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS MESSAGE. *** There are two purposes for this message: - If this message is bounced by your mail server, I can remove you from the mailing list and reduce waste of bandwidth and resources. (If you are reading this message, it clearly didn't get bounced!) - Some people stay subscribed to mailing lists even though they do not want to because they do not know how to unsubscribe. If you want to stay subscribed to the ietf-sacred mailing list, you do not need to do anything. Feel free to delete this message. On the other hand, if you want to unsubscribe from this list, simply go to the following link: If for some reason you cannot go to that web site, you can also unsubscribe by email; however, doing so is not as likely to get you unsubscribed as the web site is. To unsubscribe using email, you can respond to this message and I will unsubscribe you by hand in the next few days. Again, this is not assured to work because your mail system may make it impossible for me to determine who you are or what you want to unsubscribe to. Alternatively, you can send a plain-text message to: ietf-sacred-request@imc.org with the single word unsubscribe in the body of the message. This last method assumes that the "From:" address in your mail is "sacred-archive@lists.ietf.org". Again, using the web site above is more likely to work than this method (due to limitations in Majordomo, the mailing list software we currently use). If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. --Paul Hoffman, list administrator From owner-ietf-sacred@mail.imc.org Fri Jan 9 11:15:32 2004 Received: from above.proper.com (above.proper.com [208.184.76.39]) by ietf.org (8.9.1a/8.9.1a) with ESMTP id LAA10301 for ; Fri, 9 Jan 2004 11:15:31 -0500 (EST) Received: from above.proper.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by above.proper.com (8.12.10/8.12.8) with ESMTP id i09G7Jib057889; Fri, 9 Jan 2004 08:07:19 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-ietf-sacred@mail.imc.org) Received: (from majordom@localhost) by above.proper.com (8.12.10/8.12.9/Submit) id i09G7J6e057888; Fri, 9 Jan 2004 08:07:19 -0800 (PST) X-Authentication-Warning: above.proper.com: majordom set sender to owner-ietf-sacred@mail.imc.org using -f Received: from asgard.ietf.org (asgard.ietf.org [132.151.6.40]) by above.proper.com (8.12.10/8.12.8) with ESMTP id i09G7Hib057882 for ; Fri, 9 Jan 2004 08:07:18 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from apache@asgard.ietf.org) Received: from apache by asgard.ietf.org with local (Exim 4.14) id 1AezAD-0001pj-HG; Fri, 09 Jan 2004 11:07:09 -0500 X-test-idtracker: no From: The IESG To: IETF-Announce:; Cc: Internet Architecture Board , RFC Editor , Subject: Protocol Action: 'Securely Available Credentials Protocol' to Proposed Standard Message-Id: Date: Fri, 09 Jan 2004 11:07:09 -0500 Sender: owner-ietf-sacred@mail.imc.org Precedence: bulk List-Archive: List-Unsubscribe: List-ID: The IESG has approved the following documents: - 'Securely Available Credentials Protocol ' as a Proposed Standard - 'Securely Available Credentials - Credential Server Framework ' as an Informational RFC These documents are products of the Securely Available Credentials Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Steve Bellovin and Russ Housley. Technical Summary Certificates and other cryptographic credentials are ungainly things, not suitable to human memorization. While smart cards and the like are one possible solution, they're not widely deployed or used for general-purpose computing. The SACRED protocol permits remote storage and retrieval of such credentials. Working Group Summary There was working group consensus on this document.
