    This document specifies a new TLS certificate type for 
exchanging raw
    public keys in Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Datagram Transport
    Layer Security (DTLS) for use with out-of-band public key validation.
    Currently, TLS authentication can only occur via X.509-based Public
    Key Infrastructure (PKI) or OpenPGP certificates.  By
