We should probably be emphasizing that *all* policy belongs on the server, and we are just defining a signal for the client to convey some information as input to the server's decision. In that mindset I'm not sure that the "subtract one" signal is the most satisfying design (though I concede that it is probably the most efficient encoding). -Ben _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list TLS@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls
