A timely reminder :) I reviewed the document and it looks pretty good. I'd have sent a PR with some minor changes to grammar. The question I wanted to ask was how we wanted to manage the relationship with TLS 1.3, particularly for EdDSA. The draft asks for a NEW codepoint in the hash and signature algorithms structure. That clobbers a whole bunch of space that TLS 1.3 is going to rework. I don't think it's a good idea to perform concurrent surgery on this registry, particularly since new codepoints have the effect of taking out new swathes of space. At best we send confusing signals to IANA. I would prefer to take the arrangement that we have in TLS 1.3 and backport it here so that we have a consistent story. I also think that taking a single 2 octet codepoint from the SignatureScheme space is better all around. If we don't do that, then - at a minimum - I'd like to see PRs for both this document and TLS that recommend values for the code points and deal with the consequences of the new codepoint allocation. Finally, I think that there is an opportunity here to observe that TLS 1.3 doesn't include any EC signals (neither ECDH nor ECDSA) in the cipher suite. _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list TLS@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls
