Hi Usama,
Sorry for the late response. We have uploaded the -v01 of
draft-wang-tls-service-affinity. In the latest version, the following
modifications have been made according to your comments:
The introduction has been re-write, the CATS part has been moved to Use case
section.
A new section is added to describe the Motivation and design rationale.
The protocol design in section 4 has been revised based on TLS 1.3.
Since we are not very familiar with security-related technologies, would you
like to help us improve the content of security considerations?
Best Regards,
Wei

Thanks. Here is a structure that would help me to help you :)
Introduction
Problem statement: Say in general what the problem is. IMHO this
should not include CATS. Anyone unfamiliar with CATS should be
able to understand your problem.
Terminology
Define any terms not defined in RFC8446bis
Motivation and design rationale
I really like how Russ motivates the problem statement in RFC8773bis
[0]. Use it as a sample.
Here you should address all the concerns from WG, including
justification with compelling arguments and authentic references why
you think it should be done within TLS handshake.
You could put CATS here as a motivational use case.
Proposed solution (one or more sections)
Protocol design with protocol diagram (Use TLS 1.3 only)
Security considerations
Threat model
Desired security goals
Other security implications/considerations
Hope it helps.
You may also find [1] helpful. I will update it in the next weeks with
more details.
