These drafts incorporate this additional registry field in the JSON Web Signature and Encryption Algorithms registry, based on a comment by Stephen Farrell, with input from Jim Schaad and Kathleen Moriarty:

Algorithm Analysis Documents(s):
References to publication(s) in well-known cryptographic conferences, by national standards bodies, or by other authoritative sources analyzing the cryptographic soundness of the algorithm to be registered. The designated experts may require convincing evidence of the cryptographic soundness of a new algorithm to be provided with the registration request unless the algorithm is being registered as Deprecated or Prohibited. Having gone through working group and IETF review, the initial registrations made by this document are exempt from the need to provide this information.
