First off, thank you for bringing the topic to the WG. As the Designated Expert, you are certainly allowed to make decisions without asking, so it is extra nice that you ask on decisions that might be controversial.
On this particular topic, I would note that RFC 4753 is Informational RFC, not a standards-track document. Thus, I would think that desires of the authors of the RFC should have a heavier influence than the rest of us, although our input might be important inputs to them (and maybe to the Designated Expert). Maybe we should put the issue aside until we hear from them, which could be after the holiday. --Paul Hoffman, Director --VPN Consortium _______________________________________________ IPsec mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipsec
