I've been reading this. I think we should get rid of the "abort" concept. There's a clean shutdown and there's everything else which is an abrupt or unclean closing of the connection. The "send alert" and "close connection" concepts are separable and I think we should do that.
I think writing things this way will make it more clear. And then we can bikeshed over which alerts are MAY MUST SHOULD, knowing all along that ECONNRESET means the other side gave up. _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list TLS@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls
