The comment period about drafts for fixing CBC has now expired. Based on the messages sent to the list, the chairs believe that the overall WG sentiment is to proceed with a document that: - Codifies encrypt-then-MAC - Uses an extension for negotiation Accordingly, we propose to have the WG adopt draft-gutmann with Peter Gutmann as editor, should he be willing to serve. The revised draft should also contain a section addressing the security question of fallback issues (with an informative reference to draft-moeller, likely to become a normative reference if that draft is adopted). If there are any objections to this plan, please raise them by Friday January 17. -Ekr [For the Chairs] P.S. The chairs note that there have been a number of other comments on draft-gutmann. Once the draft is adopted, we'll need to resolve those as well.
