[TLS] very preliminary comments on draft-ietf-tls-rfc4346-bis-00.txt

I just took a quick look at this draft:

> 	Title		: The TLS Protocol
> 	Author(s)	: T. Dierks, E. Rescorla
> 	Filename	: draft-ietf-tls-rfc4346-bis-00.txt
> 	Pages		: 112
> 	Date		: 2006-3-2

It says:

>    This document specifies Version 1.2 of the Transport Layer Security
>    (TLS) protocol. The TLS protocol provides communications security
>    over the Internet. The protocol allows client/server applications to
>    communicate in a way that is designed to prevent eavesdropping,
>    tampering, or message forgery.

But later in the draft, it says:

   version
       The version of the protocol being employed. This document
-->    describes TLS Version 1.1, which uses the version { 3, 2 }. The
       version value 3.2 is historical: TLS version 1.1 is a minor
       modification to the TLS 1.0 protocol, which was itself a minor
       modification to the SSL 3.0 protocol, which bears the version
       value 3.0. (See Appendix A.1).

Pagination of this ID seems irregular.  See page 13, for example.
It contains only 3 lines, the first 3 lines of a paragraph, the rest of
which is on page 14.

This draft uses the ASCII FormFeed (FF) character as if it was an
end-of-line character.  Please change that so that the last line of a
page ends with the usual end-of-line character(s), and the FF character
begins the next line. Some printers & software only recognize the FF
character if it is the first character on a line, e.g. following an
end-of-line character.  So for maximum compatibility...
