>One can downnegotiate TLS 1.3 to TLS 1.2. Ah, you're obviously a fan of Steve Wozniak humour. When someone asked him whether it was possible to upgrade from an Apple II+ to an Apple IIe, he similarly said "yes, you unplug the power cable from the II+, throw it away, and plug the IIe into the newly-vacated power cable". Christian Huitema: >I prefer TLS 1.3, because is signals continuity with the ongoing TLS >deployment efforts. Maybe it's just me, but wouldn't the fact that they're both called TLS sort of indicate that there's continuity there? Dave Kern: >I'm in favor of TLS 4, and ignoring the minor version number (in the friendly >text string, not the protocol field) moving forward. That's actually a good point, "TLS 4" provides a single, clean number for people to remember. Even a CTO or auditor should be able to get that one right without having to look up a table in a book to see that 1.3 > v3.
