We have heard a number of statements like this. Please note that WESP was designed for one purpose (making ESP-NULL easier to find) and then the WG realized that we could make it extensible. The latter may be nice, but it should not drive our work unless there is a use case that has stronger-than-rough WG consensus. Nothing precludes us from having both WESP and adding an extensibility mechanism later when there are agreed-on needs. --Paul Hoffman, Director --VPN Consortium _______________________________________________ IPsec mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipsec
