Given your activity in TLS, you might remember RFC 8701. But there's also RFC RFC 8751 and other IETF WG products that describe part of the world and give guidance about how to use it. Also, of course, RFCs from the ISE and IAB, such as 8726, 8728 and 8729. >> This document does not fit cleanly into any of the categories of RFCs in RFC 2026, and Informational is good description of what the document does. > > I disagree. It could clearly be a BCP but it is not flowing through the normal process. That's not an indictment of the classifications, but rather the process being managed for it. This document doesn't describe "best": it describes some things to think about. It also doesn't just describe "current": a lot of it is about the past so that people understand how to apply things in the future. --Paul Hoffman _______________________________________________ saag mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
