Folks,

I originally requested this review on 12 April, but just now checked the
archives and realized that the message did not appear on the list.  I have
now subscribed to the list, so hopefully we will get a better result this
time!  Given the number of media types, please let me know if the usual two
week timeline presents a problem.

Thanks,

Tim Polk

Subject: Request for review of media types in draft-ietf-pkix-tamp



Folks,

The PKIX WG specification "Trust Anchor Management Protocol (TAMP)",
which
is available at http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-pkix-tamp-07.txt, is
currently in IESG Evaluation. Unfortunately, this specification includes
eleven MIME media types which were never announced on this list.  I am
now
(belatedly) requesting that review.

The following excerpt from the Internet-Draft contains the media type
registrations for the eleven types present in this document.
