I just made a set of proposed changes to the “use-tls13” draft [1] and taking a look at the “frozen” draft [2].
I wanted to remove the duplication of text between the two documents.  This means


  *   Remove the bullet list from the introduction
  *   Remove the security considerations because it is in the other document, not needed here

Add text that says “nothing here applies to DTLS 1.3”

This would make the draft about 1.5 pages and boilerplate.

I think it’s worth doing – the IANA instructions are the key point.  I am curious what the WG thinks.

Note that I’ll be away 24 Apr-1 May (inclusive).  Feel free to discuss on the GitHub issue [3].
