Subject: Fourth Last Call: draft-housley-tls-authz-extns

On June 27, 2006, the IESG approved "Transport Layer Security 
(TLS) Authorization Extensions," 
(draft-housley-tls-authz-extns) as a proposed standard. On 
November 29, 2006, Redphone Security (with whom Mark Brown, a 
co-author of the draft is affiliated) filed IETF IPR disclosure 767. 

Because of the timing of the IPR Disclosure, the IESG 
withdrew its approval of draft-housley-tls-authz-extns.  A 
second IETF Last Call was initiated to determine whether the 
IETF community still had consensus to publish  
draft-housley-tls-authz-extns as a proposed standard given 
the IPR claimed.  Consensus to publish as a standards track 
document was not demonstrated, and the document was withdrawn 
from IESG consideration.

A third IETF Last Call was initiated to determine whether the 
IETF community had consensus to publish 
draft-housley-tls-authz-extns as an experimental track RFC 
with knowledge of the IPR disclosure from Redphone Security.  
Consensus to publish as experimental was not demonstrated; a 
substantial segment of the community objected to publication 
on any track in light of the IPR terms.

Since the third Last Call, RedPhone Security filed IETF IPR 
disclosure 1026.  This disclosure statement asserts in part 
that "the techniques for sending and receiving authorizations 
defined in TLS Authorizations Extensions (version 
draft-housley-tls-authz-extns-07.txt) do not infringe upon 
RedPhone Security's intellectual property rights".  The full 
text of IPR disclosure 1026 is available at:

      https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/1026/

This Last Call is intended to determine whether the IETF 
community had consensus to publish  
draft-housley-tls-authz-extns as a proposed standard given 
IPR Disclosure 1026.

The IESG is considering approving this draft as a standards 
track RFC. The IESG solicits final comments on whether the 
IETF community has consensus to publish 
draft-housley-tls-authz-extns as a proposed standard. 
Comments can be sent to ietf(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org or exceptionally to 
iesg(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org(_dot_) Comments should be sent by 2009-02-11.
