Hi Rich,

New suggestion for specification required: Items violating the security 
properties shall be marked as D. Otherwise N.

It is not hard to see that e.g., NULL encryption violates the properties.

The alternative is that someone afterwards need to write a standards track 
draft and progress that through IETF. As an author of such a draft I would 
rather not have do that work. I would much rather help evaluating if an item 
violates the properties before registration.

As one of the designated experts, I would rather not make that judgement call.  
It’s enough to verify that there is documentation and it is possible to 
implement from that documentation.

Hi,

The current document states that setting the Recommended item to "D" requires 
Standards Action. I think the designated experts should be given the ability to 
mark specification required registrations as “D” Discouraged. In particular, I 
think the designated experts should mark anything that violates the security 
properties described in Appendix F of RFC 8446 as Discouraged, but I think the 
experts should be given the ability to mark anything they think “might result 
in problems if they are used, such as a weak cryptographic algorithm or a 
mechanism that might cause interoperability problems in deployment.” as “D” 
Discouraged.



Cheers,

John

Hi,

I really like the updates to the Recommended column. Making "Y" normative 
RECOMMENDED and introducing "D" seems like great changes. Good job!


Some high level comments/questions/suggestions
-----------------------------

- It is very hard to understand from the TLS Cipher Suites registry which 
cipher suites that can be used in TLS 1.3. I think it would be good to 
introduce a TLS 1.3 column.

- Should TLS versions (0x0304, 0x303, ...) and their Recommended status be 
added as a new registry? I think that would be good.

- Maybe rename "DTLS-OK" to "DTLS"? md5 can be e.g. be used in DTLS but is not 
ok to use in DTLS.

- How do one find information on which parameters are QUIC-OK?


Comments on current text:
-----------------------------

- "undertaken as part of the TLS 1.3 development process."
The abstract should be updated. The part above could be removed.

I think the IANA policies need more work. See some examples below:

- "Setting the Recommended item to "Y" or "D" or changing a item whose
current value is "Y" or "D" requires Standards Action [RFC8126]."
This seems redundant as there is a sentence below it that say the same thing in 
a much better way: “Changing the Recommended status of an item in a Standards 
Track RFC requires Standards Action [RFC8126].”

- "Adding a value Y to the "Recommended" column requires Standards Action 
{{RFC8126}}."
Seems to be different from the general rule above.

- "IESG Approval is REQUIRED for a Y->N transition."
Also Y->D I assume

Cheers,
John

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Transport Layer Security WG of the IETF.

        Title           : IANA Registry Updates for TLS and DTLS
        Authors         : Joe Salowey
                          Sean Turner
  Filename        : draft-ietf-tls-rfc8447bis-02.txt
  Pages           : 22
  Date            : 2022-10-23

Abstract:
   This document describes a number of changes to TLS and DTLS IANA
   registries that range from adding notes to the registry all the way
   to changing the registration policy.  These changes were mostly
   motivated by WG review of the TLS- and DTLS-related registries
   undertaken as part of the TLS 1.3 development process.

   This document obsoletes RFC 8447 and updates the following RFCs:
   3749, 5077, 4680, 5246, 5705, 5878, 6520, and 7301.
