Re: [TLS] Last Call: <draft-ietf-tls-applayerprotoneg-03.txt> (Transport Layer Security (TLS) Application Layer Protocol Negotiation Extension) to Proposed Standard

2013-12-13 11:28:05
The shepherd writeup for this document (current version at 
<http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tls-applayerprotoneg/shepherdwriteup/>)
 is not accurate, and that has a major effect on the IETF Last call. For 
question 9, it says:

==========
(9) How solid is the WG consensus behind this document? Does it represent the 
strong concurrence of a few individuals, with others being silent, or does the 
WG as a whole understand and agree with it?

the document represents strong consensus
==========

A hum was taken at IETF 87 for the WG to pick between this proposal and 
another; there were many hums in the room for each, with more for this 
proposal. That hum was not taken to the WG mailing list. Since then, many 
people have given strong reasons to prefer the other proposal for technical 
reasons.
