Document: draft-ietf-lamps-cms-mix-with-psk-05

Review Date: 2019-07-30
IETF LC End Date: 2019-08-06
IESG Telechat date: Not scheduled for a telechat

Summary: Essentially ready for publication as a Proposed Standard, but with an
issue to address before publication.

Issue: The instructions for IANA are unclear. IANA has to infer what to add to
the registries. I think they _can_ infer what to do for the IANA-MOD registry.
It's harder (though still possible) to guess what to do for IANA-SMIME. They
also have to infer the structure of the new registry this document intends to
create. Explicit would be better. Also, the document anticipates the currently
non-existing anchor to the new registry in the references (security-smime-13).
That generally should also be a tbd to be filled by IANA when the anchor is
actually created.

Nits/editorial comments:

Section 5, 1st paragraph, last sentence: "make use fo" should be "makes use of"

Section 9, 1st sentence : "in the Section 5" should be "in Section 6". (That's
two changes - the removal of a word, and a correction to the section number).

Micronit: In the introduction, you say "can be invulnerable to an attacker".
"invulnerable" is maybe stronger than you mean?
