Our more streamlined key distribution system (which leverages, not replaces, existing OpenPGP infrastructure such as keyservers) has worked extremely well within our own organization. We hope that formalizing our system as an IETF RFC will improve the OpenPGP ecosystem and make OpenPGP a more practical solution for email encryption in large organizations.</div><div><br></div><div>After emailing the Chairs and communicating with Richard Barnes late last summer, he suggested that the best path forward for our Draft is either a small working group or sponsorship by an Area Director chair, and that we should announce our draft to SecDispatch. Our Internet-Draft is available at <<a href="https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-mccain-keylist/" target="_blank">https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-mccain-keylist/</a>>.</div><div><br></div><div>We would appreciate any and all feedback; both comments on the Internet-Draft itself as well as on how it might be dispatched are extremely helpful.</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you,</div><div>Miles McCain, Micah Lee, and Nat Welch</div></div></div>
