   While that's a nice comment telling me what I already know, it doesn't 
address my point.  The fact that implementations exist does not mean that the 
specification is sufficient to create an implementation.

  The implementors have had many "behind the scenes" discussions about how to 
implement EAP-TLS 1.3.   The outcome of those discussions was shared among 
implementors.  That information is largely what enabled inter-operability.  
Information which is not all reflected in the document.

  I have suggested repeatedly that the document contain sufficient information 
to create a secure and inter-operable implementation.  It's not clear to me why 
these suggestions have been ignored, or rejected.

  That comment misrepresents my position.

  I gave suggested text in my messages.  These comments were largely ignored 
across multiple reviews.  This is not how we should work towards consensus.

  If the goal of this document is simply to get it published, then I withdraw 
all of my objections.  Implementors will then share extra knowledge behind the 
scenes.

  If the goal of this document is to enable secure and inter-operable 
implementations, then it would be useful to address comments from major 
implementors.
