We seem to have good consensus on moving to RSA-PSS and away from PKCS-1.5
in TLS 1.3.  However, there is a problem that it may take some hardware
implementations some time to move to RSA-PSS.  After an off list discussion
with a few folks here is a proposal for moving forward.

We make RSA-PSS mandatory to implement (MUST implement instead of MUST
offer).   Clients can advertise support for PKCS-1.5 for backwards
compatibility in the transition period.
Please respond on the list on whether you think this is a reasonable way
forward or not.

Thanks,

J&S
