FWIW, I drafted a spec of Gopher over TLS. Published the server and client libraries and deployed them in production. https://gitlab.com/commonshost/goth#gopher-over-tls-got-protocol TL;DR - Dual-stack negotiation of plaintext and TLS on port 70/tcp - Use TLSv1.2 or greater for security. - Use TLSv1.3 for 0RTT to minimise the performance loss. - Require SNI for virtual hosting. - Require ALPN=gopher for future compatibility.
