    Question - is there a good wrapper format for holding public keys (GPG/ssh/smime?) I realise that all these formats have slightly different attributes. I'm after something like ATOM but for public keys. It seems not, but I thought I'd double check here first.

    closest I could find is: http://www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/#sec-KeyInfo

  4. Simon

    Oh - found this: http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0189.xml

  5. dwd

    Simon, IIRC, the W3C has a format as part of XMLSEC.

  6. Simon

    Thanks Dave.

  7. Simon

    I found that.

    I also found that 0189 has been deferred - looks like automatically.

  9. dwd

    I think deferral is always automatic.

    An author deciding it's stupid leads to a retraction.
