Re: [TLS] Media types "application/tls" and "application/ssl", and URIs for schemes "tls" and "ssl"

> Again, think carefully about the data you are recording. Also, TLS1.2 allows renegotiation in an active connection to do things like change the cipher algorithm, ask the client to send its certificate, and so on. Are you going to record those? Client authentication seems like something important. And which part are you recording". The client or server side or both? You said "outgoing TLS record" but that's not clear to me. Renegotiation can be initiated by either side FYI.

We would be recording the records send by the client to the servers, and those received by the client from the server.

Theoretically we would support archiving all SSL/TLS records, with one condition (copied from previous email):

While any TLS records may be stored in the WARC, encrypted content in these records that needs to be available in decrypted form must be stored in a separate record in decrypted form. If the TLS record does not contain any other data of interest next to what is stored decrypted separately, the TLS record should not be stored, keeping only the decrypted record.

The would prevent any need for storing sensitive keys, and is in line with storing the HTTP record in decrypted form as is already being done.

This also means that in some cases it might make no sense to store the TLS record as it holds no interesting data next to the data that was stored in decrypted form.

Thank you for checking that, we will think about this.
