Re: Considerations about the need to resume PKIX work

Hi Anders,

Maybe, this time we might have a way in. I would be willing to work on 
it (even outside IETF, if there is no interest) and provide 
implementations in LibPKI. Easy and Secure "Provisioning / Enrollment" 
protocols are at the core for many ecosystems (e.g., IoT, WIFI, etc.). 
For the TEEP - I do not think they are going to address this particular 
issue/issues for what I have seen at the BoF.

Let's talk about this - can you send me pointers you might think are 
useful to start from ?

Cheers,
Max
