  OK.

  Presumably it's the same authentication server for all authentication 
methods.  Which means that the authentication server is already allowing 
session resumption.

  So by your argument, allowing session resumption for TTLS may be OK.  
Allowing session resumption for EAP-TLS is not OK, because octet 5 is 
different, and authentication with EAP-TLS is different than authentication 
with TTLS.

  I think we're going in a loop here.  I just don't see how there's any 
quantitative difference, and your examples aren't really convincing me.

  No that is *not* what I said.

  I don't see an issue with cross-method session resumption.  I'm happy to 
allow it.  I was pretty clear on that.

  What I'm saying is that if there's no consensus that it should be allowed, 
then I'm fine with forbidding it.
