Hello all,

I'm looking for a review on a minor spec clarification for the 
KeyAgreement API.  This change adds an additional sentence to the 
existing introduction to the KeyAgreement spec allowing 3 or more party 
exchanges to be optional unless required by the underlying 
specification.  It makes no changes to the API which still supports an 
arbitrary number of participants.

I did have difficulty finding an official, valid link to PKCS#3. I can 
find the spec from a few different sites, but they didn't look like the 
official source.  I've put RFC 2631 in there are a placeholder, but it 
describes the X9.42 variant.  I'll keep looking for the official PKCS#3 
link, but if anyone knows it off-hand please throw it my way and I'll 
add it.

Thanks,

--Jamil
