Re: [TLS] Should CCM_8 CSs be Recommended?

The current editor's copy of the draft has the following text about the
recommended column:

The instructions in this document add a recommended column to many of the
TLS registries to indicate parameters that are generally recommended for
implementations to support. Adding a recommended parameter to a registry or
updating a parameter to recommended status requires standards action. Not
all parameters defined in standards track documents need to be marked as
recommended.

If an item is marked as not recommended it does not necessarily mean that
it is flawed, rather, it indicates that either the item has not been
through the IETF consensus process or the item has limited applicability to
specific cases.
