Hi,

I made these comments about 1.5 months ago, so I hope it doesn't seem like
I'm requesting a particularly quick turnaround.

There were a couple obvious corrections EKR agreed with, but aren't done.
These should be fixed before IETF Last Call.

The one real problem (imho) with the document is nested MUST requirements:
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/tls/6x0uEVIUCBwMOIaV3UBzqeRt6Ys/

EKR called this "guidance", but RFC 2119 says MUST is "an absolute
requirement". The document needs to use the 2119 requirements language
correctly. I understand the goal, which is to preserve wire-format
compatibility in older TLS versions, even though they have security flaws.

The rest of my comments are at the editor's discretion, I agree.

thanks,
Rob
