I don't agree with the characterization.  This needs to be fast, but
to say that is has been rushed would be a vast overstatement.  This
was first raised prior to the first individual submission of ALPN,
which was over a year ago.  We've talked about it a fair bit already
and I don't believe that the substance of more recent revelations
change anything.

I believe that our esteemed chairs and area directors have allowed
these concerns to be raised and debated sufficiently.  I am grateful
that, in this case, they have curtailed the right of infinite appeal
by closing this issue.

Me, I'd rather be spending my time dealing with TLS 1.3.  These
discussions aren't doing anyone a favour.
