Body
1 Overview

The Open Mobile Alliance's (OMA) Browser and Content (BAC) Broadcast (BCAST)
group's Service and Content Protection specification defines the use of a short
term key message (STKM) and a long term key message (LTKM) that carry
attributes related to service and content protection.  An IETF draft,
draft-dondeti-msec-mikey-genext-oma, specifies the use of the General Extension
payload of MIKEY (RFC 3830) to carry the LTKMs or STKMs.  For that purpose, OMA
BCAST requests IANA registration of a new MIKEY General Extension Payload.

2 Requested Action(s)

BCAST kindly asks expedited processing of draft-dondeti-msec-mikey-genext-oma
and requests registration of a new MIKEY General Extension Payload for use by
OMA BCAST specifications.  The contents of the payload itself are defined in
the OMA Service and Content protection specification and are not provided in
the IETF draft.  The IETF draft along with the OMA Service and Content
protection specification have sufficient detail for interoperable
implementations.

3 Conclusion

We thank you for your consideration.

With best regards,
