I am working off of an Internet Draft for perpass on defeating MITM, https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-malbrain-tls-strong-authentication, to document and analyze where we're at in relation to widespread deployment of TLS strong authentication.

I would appreciate any additional facts/analysis/opinions that members of the TLS working group can add to this effort.

Thanks,
Karl Malbrain
