At the IETF in Chicago we had a hum as to the direction we should take with the password based method. I would like to clarify the choices and determine working group consensus on the list. The two directions are given below please express you preference by 10/25.
Option 1 - Password based method - this option restricts the work item to what is currently in the charter. The resulting method would have a new method ID and selecting this method would mean selecting a password based exchange that meets the requirements we already set forth. The method may use an existing method as its base. Option 2 - Tunneling method - this option requires clarifying the charter to work on a tunneling method which would then be used to meet the password method requirements. This would include making sure we have a valid set of requirements to work with. The working group may select an existing method as its base and have backwards compatibility as a goal, however whether the method uses the same method ID and any modifications to the method will be determined by working group and IETF consensus.
