Yaron,

I think we should progress it to FS only if there are other protocols that make use of it, and which are really in use in a non-trivial fashion. I think Sean said that he identified some such protocols when he was exploring this topic, so we should ask Sean
for details.

updated versions of RFC 4301, 4302, and 4303 have been posted:


Thank you Steve for working on these drafts. These drafts are targeted at republication as Internet Standards. As promised in Vancouver, I would like to open the question of whether we should be republishing RFC 4302 - AH.

My personal opinion is that we should not. We have downgraded AH and consistently discouraged its use, replacing it by ESP-null. People are obviously free to implement it even if it remains Proposed Standard, but why give the wrong message by promoting it to IS?

Thanks,
    Yaron
