+1 for “TLS 2017” for all the four reasons given in the proposal.
My overall preference is TLS 2017 > TLS 4 > TLS 2 or 2.0 > TLS 1.3. Best, Xiaoyin From: D. J. Bernstein<mailto:d...@cr.yp.to> Sent: Sunday, November 20, 2016 7:56 PM To: tls@ietf.org<mailto:tls@ietf.org> Subject: Re: [TLS] Confirming consensus: TLS1.3->TLS* The messages on the list seem to be perfectly split between "TLS 1.3" and "TLS 4". I suspect that the "TLS 2017" idea will break this impasse: * it shares the fundamental advantage that led to the "TLS 4" idea; * it has the additional advantage of making the age obvious; * it eliminates the "4 sounds too much like 3" complaint; and * it eliminates the "where are TLS 2 and TLS 3?" complaint. Perhaps it's worth starting a poll specifically between "TLS 1.3" and "TLS 2017"? Or at least asking whether the new "TLS 2017" option would swing some previous opinions? Of course people who prioritize retaining the existing "TLS 1.3" mindshare will be just as unhappy with "TLS 2017" as with "TLS 4", but they'll get over it within a few years. :-) ---Dan _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list TLS@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls
