These JOSE and JWT drafts contain updates intended to address the remaining outstanding IESG review comments by Pete Resnick, Stephen Farrell, and Richard Barnes, other than one that Pete may still provide text for.  Algorithm names are now restricted to using only ASCII characters, the TLS requirements language has been refined, the language about integrity protecting header parameters used in trust decisions has been augmented, we now say what to do when an RSA private key with "oth" is encountered but not supported, and we now talk about JWSs with invalid signatures being considered invalid, rather than them being rejected.  Also, added the CRT parameter values to example JWK RSA private key representations.

The specifications are available at:

*         http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-jose-json-web-signature-37

*         http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-jose-json-web-encryption-37
