Hi Ben,

I re-looked into the discussion in the TLS WG mailing list and we have
addressed all the comments raised by the WG members.

The issues raised by the TLS WG and addressed in the draft are:

(a) We added Section 6 to explain the rules to processing the MUD (D)TLS
rules to handle ossification and updated Section 10 to enable faster update
to the YANG module.
(b) Updates to the draft that the YANG module must not include GREASE
values (see Section 5).
(c) Privacy issues related to not revealing the MUD URL to an attacker is
discussed in Section 9.

Please let us know if you see any other pending issues.

Cheers,
-Tiru
