[TLS]Re: [Editorial Errata Reported] RFC6347 (8089)

[Rebecca VanRheenen <[e-mail]>]

Hi Paul,

We are unable to verify this erratum that the submitter marked as editorial, so we changed the Type to “Technical”. As Stream Approver, please review and set the Status and Type accordingly (see the definitions at https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata-definitions/)

Notes:
* RFC 6347 has been obsoleted by RFC 9147. We see similar blocks of code in Section 5.2 and Appendix A.2 of RFC 9147.
* For information about errata on obsolete RFCs, see #7 in the IESG Statement on "IESG Processing of RFC Errata for the IETF Stream” (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/statement-iesg-iesg-processing-of-rfc-errata-for-the-ietf-stream-20210507/)
