This is the "TLS 1.2 is frozen" draft promised in Yokohama. I am pleased to have Nimrod as co-author. We think this is ready for adoption :)

TLS 1.3 is also in widespread use and fixes some known deficiencies with TLS 1.2, such as removing error-prone cryptographic primitives and encrypting more of the traffic so that it is not readable by outsiders. Both versions have several extension points, so items like new cryptographic algorithms, new supported groups (formerly "named curves"), etc., can be added without defining a new protocol. This document specifies that TLS 1.2 is frozen: no new algorithms or extensions will be approved. Further, TLS 1.3 use is widespread, and new protocols should require and assume its existence.
