Re: [pkix] stuff in ITU-T SG17 meeting relating to X509, cms, and S/MME

I’m not entirely sure they’re related but there was this:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/1283/
and then this:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/1294/

It looks to me like they’re updating the ASN.1 to a later version and adding a new content type.  Note we’ve already updated the ASN.1 to a later version.  And, you don’t need to update the base spec to add a new content type - we’ve done it a LOT.
