Re-charter is in progress.  See https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/charter-ietf-suit/

The SUIT Manifest specification was broken into several documents.  The first document (draft-ietf-suit-manifest) contains the core features that need to be supported by all implementations.  There are several optional extensions that include features that are needed by some implementations (draft-ietf-suit-firmware-encryption, draft-moran-suit-trust-domains, draft-moran-suit-update-management).  In the next few months, we expect all of these to reach WG Last Call.

The SUIT Secure Reporting of Update Status specification (draft-ietf-suit-report) is getting attention as the SUIT Manifest specification is becoming stable.

Once the re-charter is finished, an addition optional SUIT Manifest extensions will be adopted to distribute a MUD file along with the manifest.
