RFC 3946 bis

["Adrian Farrel" <adrian@olddog.co.uk>]

Hi,

In view of the issues raised on the list in March and more recently by the
OIF in their questions, I have asked the editors of RFC 3946 to prepare an
I-D that is a bis on the RFC to document what they intended to write. That
is, to document the consensus of the WG at the time the I-D was submitted
to be an RFC,

As such, this I-D is not a change to the procedures that were agreed, and
does not reflect any change in the implementation. it is simply a
clarification of what was written. In particular, it fixes a typo where
"greater than" was written and "greater than or equal to" was meant.

I note that Ben has been raising an issue that proposes a change to the
procedures documented in RFC 3946. I have not seen any support for this so
far, and I do not propose that we should make such a change to RFC 3946 in
this I-D.

Thanks to Dimitri for moving forward with these editorial changes. If you
look through the draft you will see that Dimitri has inserted notes to
highlight the changes (to make it easy for you to review and to explain
the changes).

I would like to move this I-D through the process PDQ so I will give you a
short time to read, digest and send mail. Barring any major upsets, we
will make this a WG I-D on 7th September, and then look for any other
editorial clarifications we should make at the same time, before moving
rapidly on to WG last call.

Thanks,
Adrian
