SNIA standards document would like to reference KMIP draft

Hello,

   The Storage Networking 
Industry Association (SNIA) has an activity within its Security Technical Work 
Group (TWG) that actively tracks standards and specifications that are 
potentially relevant to storage security. Approximately three times a year, the 
Security TWG produces an internal report for the SNIA membership, which provides 
a list of the identified documents as well as the state of drafts under 
development. In the case of drafts, the Security TWG is careful to not disclose 
privileged information about activities that have not been disclosed to the public (e.g., early drafts 
being developed by the Trusted Computing Group). KMIP is clearly an activity of 
interest, so guidance is being requested from the KMIP TC on the level of detail 
that can/should be disclosed in the SNIA internal report. Clearly, any public 
information will be leveraged, but if the KMIP TC permits additional info to be 
included it may be possible to identify the latest drafts as well as identifying 
other relevant documents (like compliance 
documents).

   As the 
SNIA Security TWG liaison, I was asked to query the KMIP TC, on what version of 
KMIP draft specification is the best to reference.  Basicly I would like to 
know if there is any information that is not public, that the OASIS TC would 
want/allow the SNIA Security TWG to use to track OASIS activities.  I'm 
assuming right now that there will be regular updates made publicly 
available to the KMIP draft and other deliverable docs. If that is the case, is 
this link the best location for an outside group, like SNIA, to track OASIS 
KMIP draft activities?

   If one 
of the chairs or staff could respond, that would be great.
