Hi Max,
I have an other question regarding the getNextCA operation. We cleared the MIME type but,
The current draft text indicates "application/x-x509-next-ca-cert" but the figure erroneously indicated the wrong mime type. I've updated this for the next draft.
the current version also does not specify the SCEP messageType does it ? Is it CertRep so the corresponding decimal 3 ?
Section 5.2.6.1 references the GetNextCACert response definition in section 4.6.1. This in turn clarifies that the response format is equivalent to the CA and RA certificates response which is defined in 5.2.1.1.2 which was introduced in 4.1.1.2. A confusing trail but ultimately accurate (I think).
There is no indication of the messageType attribute value being set at all; much like how there is none set for GetCACert. 



Also I assume that the response
 "Content-Type:application/x-x509-next-ca-certt\n\n"
<BER-encoded SignedData<BER-encoded degenerate PKCS7>>
is also a base64 and DER encoded right? Only to clarify sorry if I missed something in the draft describing this.
As with the GetCACert response (section 4.1.1.2) this would be a binary response without the base64 encoding. 

Does this help answer your questions?

Kind regards,

Arkadius
