In response to the comments made during the last-call period on this
draft, I made some changes in my git repository, which are included inline
below. Please let me know if you think your comment(s) have not been
addressed either in an email reply or the changes below.
I have not attempted to rewrite the description of the GSS negotiation
loop for clarity. Looking at RFC 4462 (ssh gssapi keyex) for inspriation,
it seems that the flow of description is largely similar, but the RFC's
formatting is more spread out and helps readability. They have the luxury
of being able to describe the messages sent in each direction on a
per-message basis, after the outline of the GSS control flow. Our control
flow does not have a persistent connection, and the client drives the loop
using the GSSNegotiate RPC; I think it would be confusing to excise the
actual message passing portions to the end of the description as is done
in the ssh RFC.
Reformatting could go hand-in-hand with adding subsections for the key
negotiation section, but I'd like to hear from the chairs that it's worth
the time before I go and do that. ("The document is going to need another
last call" will be considered to imply "it's worth doing the work to
reformat".)
