Publication of this document does not imply endorsement by the W3C membership. This is a draft document and may be updated, replaced or obsoleted by other documents at any time. It is inappropriate to cite a W3C Working Draft as anything other than a "work in progress." A list of current W3C working drafts can be found at http://www.w3.org/TR/.
These requirements will be reflected in the XKMS specification, as well as additional optional recommendations in the XKMS work group charter, such as bulk key registration. Wherever "specification" is used in this document, it refers to the eventual core XKMS Recommendation as well as any additional associated specifications.
Patent disclosures relevant to this specification may be found on the Working Group's patent disclosure page in conformance with W3C policy (at the time of writing there are none there).
