RE: Security for various IETF services

once you hand security the keys to your organisation, it's no longer your 
organisation.

I am unsurprised by the increasing speed of security moves here (really, 
security
policy matters; policy is easy to push. governments do it all the time) and
the increasing slowness of everything else. (it's been twenty years since
RFC1323bis kicked off. Don't hold your breath.)

I was right in warning about DTN. Seems I''m right in warning about this. right?

I concur with John.
My fear of the whole Prepass effort was that it would be used in "we
approved that, therefore we can and should do this without further
discussion" arguments. I just thought it would take a few years to get
to that point.
That was the root of my object to the publication of the Attack RFC.
