Do we need to say explicitly in a charter that the best contemporary practices in terms of cryptography have to be used in the development of a new thing? If so, it seems like every charter would need to be explicit about it. I suppose this is also me starting to lean in the direction that, yes, this is indeed a new thing, not an update to an existing thing, even if it borrows heavily from the existing thing. In that case, cipher suite updates would be out of scope for this effort. -MSK
