 So far I have only seen responses from Dan Harkins on the proposed
 charter update (
 http://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/emu/current/msg00712.html )  

I'm a little confused: I interpreted the above-referenced message as a
call for consensus.  Was that correct?  If so, it seems like the
deadline came  went w/only the responses you mentioned from Dan.
Therefore, the (visible) consensus of the group (excluding yourself, as
Chair) expressed during the period of time allotted for comments was
that the password-based method (w/no tunnel involved) should _not_ be
removed from the charter, right?  If the people supporting the removal
couldn't be bothered to send comments for 2 weeks, I'm not sure that
their opinion should count afterwards: either there was a deadline or
there wasn't (surely we don't just continue to ask the question until we
get the answer we want).  OTOH, if the message was _not_ a consensus
call then it's not clear to me what the purpose was...

 
 Please respond on the list if you have reviewed the charter and have
 comments or if you approve of the current text.  Also make sure to
 review the milestones.  
 
 Thanks,
 
 Joe

 I know it's after the deadline, but I think we should clarify 
 some of the text to avoid debates on interpretation later.  
 (Note: this is going to sound like nit picking :) ).
 
 For instance, on,
 Enable a TLS-based EAP method to support channel bindings. 
 So as to enable RFC 2716bis to focus solely on clarifications 
 to the existing protocol, this effort will be handled in a 
 separate document.  This item will not generate a new method, 
 rather it will enhance EAP-TLS or the TLS based tunnel method.  
 
 Which is the TLS based tunnel method that is going to be enhanced?
 

[Joe] This the TLS based tunnel method is the method the working group
will be working.  Would it help if I said the above TLS based tunnel
method

 We need to specify what we mean by channel bindings.  Is 
 there an agreed upon definition that we can refer to?
 
[Joe] I think we are working towards this, I will check with the Ads to
see where this is at. I don't think we should hold up the charter
definition for this.

 Lakshminath

RE: [Emu] WG consensus on charter update

2008-01-28 Thread Hao Zhou (hzhou)
Joe:

I am ok with the updated charter, with the following minor comments:

1. Should we add crypto-agility to the requirements of tunnel method?
And maybe strong shared secret method as well?
2. Move this paragraph right after the tunnel method paragraph, as it
reference the tunnel method above. This way if causes less confusion
with the TLS based channel binding method.
A mechanism meeting RFC 3748 and RFC 4017 requirements that makes use
of existing password databases such as AAA databases.  This item will be
based on the above tunnel method.
3. TLS based channel binding paragraph: 
Enable a TLS-based EAP method to support channel bindings. So as to
enable RFC 2716bis to focus solely on clarifications to the existing
protocol, this effort will be handled in a separate document.  This item
will not generate a new method, rather it will enhance EAP-TLS or the
TLS based tunnel method.

What does will not generate a new method mean? If we enhance EAP-TLS,
we are likely need to create a new method ID (the current one doesn't
have a version field). Even if we do, likely we will create backward
compatibility issue. Sound like the tunnel method is better, so we
creating minimum new EAP methods. If we choose the TLS based tunnel
method, the requirements already cover the channel binding. Why don't we
just make the decision now and say it is part of the tunnel method, or
at least make the minimum operation mode of the tunnel method is just
TLS with channel binding?

I apologize for not responding earlier. I have reviewed the
proposed charter revision and milestones. I think they are
good and should be approved.

Thanks,

Steve
