The IESG has received a request from the Transport Layer Security WG 
(tls) to consider the following document:

- 'DES and IDEA Cipher Suites for Transport Layer Security (TLS) '
   <draft-ietf-tls-des-idea-02.txt> as an Informational RFC

This document deprecates the use of DES (when used in single-DES mode)
and IDEA ciphers in TLS.

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action.  Please send substantive comments to the
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing lists by 2008-11-17. Exceptionally, 
comments may be sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead. In either case, please 
retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

The file can be obtained via
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-tls-des-idea-02.txt
