Status: Rejected

Rejected by: Paul Wouters (IESG)

Section: 7.4.1.2

Original Text
-------------
The ClientHello Structure indicates that a SessionID could be present.
However if I take a wireshark of a TLS session I always see a "Session 
ID Length" field, either with value 0 or value 32

Corrected Text
--------------
In the ClientHello structure and ServerHello structure, include 
a 1 byte "Session ID Length" field.

Notes
-----
The ClientHello Structure indicates that a SessionID could be present.
However if I take a wireshark of a TLS session I always see a 
"Session ID Length" field, either with value 0 or value 32.
 --VERIFIER NOTES-- 
This erratum is incorrect.

Here is the definition of SessionID:
      opaque SessionID<0..32>;

The angle brackets mean that it is variable length and the 0..32 means that there is
a one-byte length field.
