Re: [TLS] Fw: New Version Notification for draft-katagi-tls-clefia-00.txt

Hi Masanobu,

I have two comments for your draft.

[For IPR statement]
I can't find an IPR statement on CLEFIA for TLS when searching for that 
draft on the IPR Disclosure search page:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/search/?option=document_search&document_search=draft-katagi-tls-clefia

In the case of Camellia, we submitted the IPR statement for TLS as a 
following:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/41/

Since CLEFIA is patented by SONY, I believe you need to submit an IPR　 
disclosure for this document.


[For ciphersuites with SHA-1]
Are you really suggesting that CLEFIA be used with SHA-1?
NIST is saying not to use SHA-1 very soon. I believe these suites should 
be removed because RFC 6209 and new I-D on Camellia are not defined on 
these suites recently.
Of course, I checked security considerations for ciphersuites with SHA-1 
in your draft.

What do you and TLS folks think of these ciphersuites?

Regards,
Satoru
