Please review and comment.

Sorry for the slightly late review.

I previously reviewed -09 of this and think the changes since then,
(perhaps partly in response to that review), nicely capture the nature
of the experiment being done here, are well-stated in the draft and
are sufficient for publication of an experimental RFC. (As a nit, some
of those changes have enhanced visibility in the text version but not
in the HTML - I like the way the text version calls our those bits of
text myself fwiw, e.g. in the last para before 1.1.)

I mostly reviewed the diff from -09 to -12 and haven't implemented
either a client or server for this but the nitty details look fairly
sane for an experimental RFC.

If there were one thing I'd suggest adding, it'd be to describe a
DTN scenario where the multi-perspective thing was ineffective, from
the vantage point(s) of a CA. I think that might help people doing
experiments figure out some things to look out for, or might help
some CA decide to play-ball in an experiment if they don't have to
discover the problem themselves. (A known problem there is a DTN where
all traffic between the CA and DTN nodes has to go via one (set of)
agents all under the control of a potential attacker.) I don't think
such text is required for publication, but spelling it out in 3.5 or
the security considerations would be nicer I think.

I see Rob has commented that he doesn't see how this draft can garner
IETF consensus. I don't get that objection(*) as ISTM the IETF can of
course reach consensus to enable experiments related to DTN security and
key management, which are both fairly tricky topics where improvements
will (I think) benefit from experimentation of this kind. (Or to put
it negatively, without experiments like this, we'll likely not see
improvements in DTN security and key management.)

So, yes, I think this is ready to move along to IETF LC and to become
an experimental RFC.

Cheers,
S.

(*) WRT IETF consensus, we're not there yet since IETF LC hasn't
started, so it's puzzling to object that we can't get that when
WGLC is only now under way.

Internet-Draft draft-ietf-acme-dtnnodeid-12.txt is now available. It is a
work
item of the Automated Certificate Management Environment (ACME) WG of the
IETF.

    Title:   Automated Certificate Management Environment (ACME)
Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN) Node ID Validation Extension
    Author:  Brian Sipos
    Name:    draft-ietf-acme-dtnnodeid-12.txt
    Pages:   31
    Dates:   2024-01-11

Abstract:

    This document specifies an extension to the Automated Certificate
    Management Environment (ACME) protocol which allows an ACME server to
    validate the Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN) Node ID for an ACME
    client.  A DTN Node ID is an identifier used in the Bundle Protocol
    (BP) to name a "singleton endpoint", one which is registered on a
    single BP node.  The DTN Node ID is encoded as a certificate Subject
    Alternative Name (SAN) of type otherName with a name form of
    BundleEID and as an ACME Identifier type "bundleEID".
