The IESG has received a request from the Transport Layer Security WG (tls) to consider the following document: - 'Out-of-Band Public Key Validation for Transport Layer Security (TLS)' <draft-ietf-tls-oob-pubkey-09.txt> as Proposed Standard
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 2013-08-16. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document specifies a new certificate type and two TLS extensions, one for the client and one for the server, for exchanging raw public keys in Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) for use with out-of-band public key validation. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tls-oob-pubkey/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tls-oob-pubkey/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
