Re: [TLS] TLS Cached Info Status

Hi Sean,

here is my plan B: we go ahead with the publication of the document 
without the proposed functionality since we have not gotten the data to 
judge whether it is a useful extension or not.

We can still try to gather the data and if it indeed turns out that the 
functionality is useful then there is always the possibility to add an 
extension; the draft defines a 'lightweight' way to provide new caching 
extensions.

I am going to refresh the document.

Ciao
Hannes
