Just for the recods: After we finished the core of rfc4880bis and solved
the litigous things in Summer 2021, I stepped out due to my time
constraints.  Only editorial changes were planned ay the point and thus
I asked the design team to have my colleague Niibe-san to replace me.
Actually he planned to bring his Simple Octet String proposal forward
which makes the encoding of certain objects easier to describe.

That is the background why he is given as author.  I explictly asked the
new editor to drop me from the list of authors, when I realized that
they did substantial changes instead of just editorial changes.


Salam-Shalom,

   Werner
