The IESG has approved the following document: - 'TLS 1.2 is in Feature Freeze' (draft-ietf-tls-tls12-frozen-08.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Transport Layer Security Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Paul Wouters and Deb Cooley. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tls-tls12-frozen/ Technical Summary Use of TLS 1.3 is growing and fixes some known deficiencies in TLS 1.2. This document specifies that outside of urgent security fixes, new TLS Exporter Labels, or new Application-Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN) Protocol IDs, no changes will be approved for TLS 1.2. This prescription does not pertain to DTLS (in any DTLS version); it pertains to TLS only. Working Group Summary No issues and broad consensus Informational Track was originally requested, but after discussions with IANA and the AD it was changed to Standards Track because the I-D updates registration procedures for a number of registries. Document Quality This does not define a protocol. Text is clear on IANA updates. Personnel The Document Shepherd for this document is Sean Turner. The Responsible Area Director is Paul Wouters.
