Oops, and my notes were unfortunately misalgined to the terminal window
size:

(3) I think we were going to change the [JWT] reference to [CWT], in
Section 4:

   Applications utilizing proof of possession SHOULD also utilize
   audience restriction, as described in Section 4.1.3 of [JWT], as it
   provides additional protections.  Audience restriction can be used by
   recipients to reject messages intended for different recipients.

That way we won't get asked to make [JWT] a normative reference.
