Hi Stephen,
Like you, I am very unhappy with this draft, and would not support its
adoption as a WG draft. However I think that open discussion is in
general good, and that the best venue for discussion of this draft is
this mailing list. Even if some of this discussion devolves into generic
"are we pro or against wiretapping" questions.
I don't think this is a significant distraction that could derail
(D)TLS, moreover, you will recall that in Chicago several new drafts
were adopted to the working group. So the WG does feel that TLS is in
good enough shape that we can spend some bandwidth on other things.
Thanks,
Yaron

Sean/Joe,
This is a request that you, as chairs, shut down the distracting
wiretapping discussion, at least until DTLS1.3 is done.
I have planned to spend time reading draft 21 and DTLS, but that
won't happen if we keep having to fight off the latest attempts
to break TLS. I'd not be surprised if I weren't the only one
finding that distraction an irritating waste of time. Finishing
TLS1.3 and getting DTLS1.3 on the way surely needs to not be
constantly de-railed by these attempts to break TLS.
Therefore I'd ask that you declare this discussion closed for at
least that long (i.e until DTLS1.3 is done).
I'd also ask that you not allocate agenda time for wiretapping
in Prague.
Thanks,
S.
