In it's current state SCMP cannot become a standard because it references the S/MIME v2 draft which is informational. The proposed solutions are; 1) Wait for S/MIME v3 to become a standard and reference that Cons: Already have implementation based on S/MIME v2. To move to S/MIME v3 is significant work. Pros: ? 2) Make SCMP an informational draft Cons: ? Pros: Draft would reflect real implementation. 3) Replace reference of S/MIME v2 with references of RFC 1847 Cons: ? Pros: ? 4) Amend S/MIME v2 rfc to draft? Cons: ? Pros: ? Anybody care to comment on the issues surrounding these resolutions? Thanks.
