Hi,
I really like the updates to the Recommended column. Making "Y" normative
RECOMMENDED and introducing "D" seems like great changes. Good job!
Some high level comments/questions/suggestions
-----------------------------
- It is very hard to understand from the TLS Cipher Suites registry which
cipher suites that can be used in TLS 1.3. I think it would be good to
introduce a TLS 1.3 column.
- Should TLS versions (0x0304, 0x303, ...) and their Recommended status be
added as a new registry? I think that would be good.
- Maybe rename "DTLS-OK" to "DTLS"? md5 can be e.g. be used in DTLS but is not
ok to use in DTLS.
- How do one find information on which parameters are QUIC-OK?
Comments on current text:
-----------------------------
- "undertaken as part of the TLS 1.3 development process."
The abstract should be updated. The part above could be removed.
I think the IANA policies need more work. See some examples below:
- "Setting the Recommended item to "Y" or "D" or changing a item whose
current value is "Y" or "D" requires Standards Action [RFC8126]."
This seems redundant as there is a sentence below it that say the same thing in
a much better way: “Changing the Recommended status of an item in a Standards
Track RFC requires Standards Action [RFC8126].”
- "Adding a value Y to the "Recommended" column requires Standards Action
{{RFC8126}}."
Seems to be different from the general rule above.
- "IESG Approval is REQUIRED for a Y->N transition."
Also Y->D I assume
Cheers,
John

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Transport Layer Security WG of the IETF.
Title : IANA Registry Updates for TLS and DTLS
Authors : Joe Salowey
Sean Turner
Filename : draft-ietf-tls-rfc8447bis-02.txt
Pages : 22
Date : 2022-10-23
Abstract:
This document describes a number of changes to TLS and DTLS IANA
registries that range from adding notes to the registry all the way
to changing the registration policy. These changes were mostly
motivated by WG review of the TLS- and DTLS-related registries
undertaken as part of the TLS 1.3 development process.
This document obsoletes RFC 8447 and updates the following RFCs:
3749, 5077, 4680, 5246, 5705, 5878, 6520, and 7301.
