Sure, but I have also just sent a request off to get TLS and DTLS added as 
well-known abbreviations so I’m hoping to change it back during AUTH48 ;)

See Ben’s response.

Yep that does read better.

I think that would be terribly unfair especially since the draft defining the 
token_binding extension is on the 5/10 telechat ;)

How about I just get them to add a Recommended = Yes column.

Can’t believe I forgot cached_info.   I’ll add a note about token_binding.  I 
also just sent the WG a note about needing to add the Recommended “Yes” value 
to their IANA considerations.

Ah it did that because it’s a code snipet :(. Fixed the multiple occurrences.

yeah I think it’s that the others are "to be marked” (same for the cipher 
suites).

Yep.

See the following PR to address the above changes:
