Changing the cipher suite numbers because the document now targets experimental status will disrupt deployed implementations and harms adoption of the protocol. Also, for this particular protocol, I believe its already wide deployment suggests that PS is the appropriate choice. However, as a general issue, it seems unfortunate that ciphersuite numbers are tightly connected to the IETF standards track category. If I recall correctly, successful documents on the Experimental track may later be revised into Proposed Standards. Will the ciphersuite numbers then change? This seems to be a general problem with the core TLS specification, and doesn't seem to be fully thought out. I suggest that for future TLS revisions, it should be considered whether to remove the distinction of standards-track numbers and non-standards track number, and that it becomes easier to have IANA perform early allocation of TLS ciphersuite numbers to help implementers test new TLS draft. /Simon _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list TLS@lists.ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls
