Subject: [OAUTH-WG] JSON Web Token (JWT) and JSON Web Signature (JWS) now in 
separate specs

As promised, I have split the contents of the JWT spec 
draft-jones-json-web-token-01<http://self-issued.info/docs/draft-jones-json-web-token-01.html>
 into two simpler specs:
                
draft-jones-json-web-token-02<http://self-issued.info/docs/draft-jones-json-web-token-02.html>
                
draft-jones-json-web-signature-00<http://self-issued.info/docs/draft-jones-json-web-signature-00.html>
These should have introduced no semantic changes from the previous spec.

I then applied the feedback that I received since JWT -01 and created revised 
versions of the split specs:
                
draft-jones-json-web-token-03<http://self-issued.info/docs/draft-jones-json-web-token-03.html>
                
draft-jones-json-web-signature-01<http://self-issued.info/docs/draft-jones-json-web-signature-01.html>
The only breaking change introduced was that x5t (X.509 Certificate Thumbprint) 
is now a SHA-1 hash of the DER-encoded certificate, rather than a SHA-256 has, 
as SHA-1 is the prevailing existing practice for certificate thumbprint 
calculations.  See the Document History sections for details on each change 
made.

.txt and .xml versions are also available.  I plan to publish these as IETF 
drafts once the submission window re-opens on Monday.  Feedback welcome!

                                                            -- Mike

P.S.  Yes, work on the companion encryption spec is now under way...
