Summary:
This draft is ready to be published as Standards Track RFC but I have some comments .

Major issues:

Minor issues:
-The draft's "Intended status:" is missing in the title.

Nits/editorial comments:
-[Page 2], Introduction, it would be clearer if the introduction would give more high level information or a reference to the 'implementation bug' being referred to:
"At least  one of these implementation bugs can be ameliorated by making the  ClientHello even larger."
Is this bug the one explained in Section 4?

-[Page 2], "consists of an arbitary"---->"consists of an arbitrary"

Best Regards,
Meral
