 This document describes JOSE and COSE serializations for SLH-DSA, which was derived from SPHINCS+, a Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) based digital signature scheme.

-Note to RFC Editor: This document should not proceed to AUTH48 until NIST completes paramater tuning and selection as a part of the [PQC](https://csrc.nist.gov/projects/post-quantum-cryptography) standardization process.
