Warren Kumari has entered the following ballot position for draft-ietf-dcrup-dkim-crypto-13: No Objection When responding, please keep the subject line intact and reply to all email addresses included in the To and CC lines. (Feel free to cut this introductory paragraph, however.) Please refer to https://www.ietf.org/iesg/statement/discuss-criteria.html for more information about IESG DISCUSS and COMMENT positions. The document, along with other ballot positions, can be found here: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dcrup-dkim-crypto/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- COMMENT: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Section 7. Security Considerations "Ed25519 is a widely used cryptographic technique, so the security of DKIM signatures using new signing algorithms should be at least as good as those using old algorithms." Could this be reworded? This might just be a pet peeve, but as it is written, it is, I believe, false[0]. This says that, because lots of people use something, it must be good / secure. That's like saying that because lots of people drink instant coffee it must be at least as good as real coffee. Adding something like "and has received lots of review from the cryptographic community", or "doesn't seem to have any weaknesses", or something would help. Oh, the Change Log "11 to 12" entry wins! W [0]: I bought a box of commas on sale this weekend.
