The IESG has approved the following document:
- 'Deprecating MD5 and SHA-1 signature hashes in (D)TLS 1.2'
  (draft-ietf-tls-md5-sha1-deprecate-09.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the Transport Layer Security Working Group.

The IESG contact persons are Benjamin Kaduk and Roman Danyliw.

Technical Summary

   The MD5 and SHA-1 hashing algorithms are increasingly vulnerable to
   attack and this document deprecates their use in TLS 1.2 digital
   signatures.  However, this document does not deprecate SHA-1 in HMAC
   for record protection.  This document updates RFC 5246.

Working Group Summary

* There is strong support in the working group for this document.  Primary 
items during WGLC was around the consistency of the normative language.

* Discussion from AD Review and IETC LC saw the streamlining of the update 
guidance to RFC5246 and dropping an formal update to RFC7525 (as it is being 
revised).

Document Quality

* There was review from the WG, comments from the IETF LC and Directorates (in 
particular IoTDIR) were addressed.
