RE: [tcpm] Last Call: draft-ietf-tcpm-tcp-auth-opt (The TCP Authentication Option) to Proposed Standard

Hi Wesley, I stand red faced and corrected.
The last version I saw did not address this (I think that was either 08 or 09) 
and I assumed the .10 didn't either.
I withdraw my objection and apologize for having missed this significant 
rewrite!!

Hi Donald, as the document shepherd, I need to set the record
straight on this, as your statement is simply false.

In checking that the WGLC comments had been handled in the
following document update, I looked at both the email thread
you participated in and the updated document.  In this case,
the editor very clearly responded to your inputs and made
significant changes to the document.

You can find an entirely new section (9.7 Connectionless
Resets) starting in version 09 of the draft, which
specifically responds to your comments with resolutions that
were discussed on the mailing list.  This section discusses
maintenance of the traffic keys across reboots which answers
your concern and makes the practice a "SHOULD" which is
stronger even than the "MAY" that you mention below.

I do not understand why you feel like your inputs were
ignored, but I hope that you'll agree that this was not the case.

I have commented numerous times that with a paragraph that
specifically provides vendors to make "connection-less resets
== attack packets" this will not get much if any use among
ISPs or other bgp speakers.

Those statements have pretty much been ignored.

I do not support this draft and believe I have wasted my time
trying to explain why to someone that is unwilling to
compromise with even a "a vendor MAY maintain state to allow
connectionless resets to work".
