I think you meant to type -01 as 

   https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-harwood-krb-pkinit-dh-upsize/01/ <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-harwood-krb-pkinit-dh-upsize/01/>

aka

   https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-harwood-krb-pkinit-dh-upsize-01.txt <https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-harwood-krb-pkinit-dh-upsize-01.txt>

is the latest version of the draft.

This seems reasonable to me.

I have reviewed draft-harwood-krb-pkinit-dh-upsize-01.txt <https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-harwood-krb-pkinit-dh-upsize-01.txt> and it looks good to me.
