Hi Sean,
Hi List,

> Errata on obsolete RFCs should be considered according to whether the
error persists in the obsoleting RFC. ... If it does not, it should be
Rejected with an explanation that the error is corrected in the
obsoleting RFC (cited by number).

I'm not sure, but I guess, that assumes the error either persists or
is corrected in an obsoleting RFC. But of the obsoleting RFC doesn't
address it because of more fundamental changes, we need first to
decide, if such "stale" errors should be corrected or not.

If such stale errors should be corrected, then the most rejects
are wrong.

About EID 5186:

(p17 is 4.2.1 not 4.2.4)

AFAIK, for stateless implementations of 4.2.1 requires that
the HelloVerifyRequest takes both, the record sequence number
and the (handshake) message_seq from the ClientHello. The same
applies to the ServerHello

best regards
Achim

Hi! We’ve got 8 reported errata on DTLS 1.2 (RFC 6347):
https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=6347&rec_status=15&presentation=records
that we, the royal we where we is the WG, need to dispatch.  By way of 
background, the
IESG has the following statement about processing errata on the IETF stream:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/statement-iesg-iesg-processing-of-rfc-errata-for-the-ietf-stream-20210507/
Based on the IESG statement, please let me know by 3 April if you disagree with 
the following proposed
resolutions:

1. https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid3917

Proposed dispatch: reject
Rationale: RFC 9147 obsoletes RFC 6347 and extensions is added to the 
ClientHello struct (see s5.3).

2. https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid4103

Proposed dispatch: reject
Rationale: RFC 9147 obsoletes RFC 6347 and HelloVerifyRequest is no longer 
applicable to DTLS 1.3.

3. https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid5186

Proposed dispatch: reject
Rationale: RFC 9147 obsoletes RFC 6347 and the section in question was 
extensively revised; the offending text is removed or no longer applies.

4. https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid4104

Proposed dispatch: reject
Rationale: RFC 9147 obsoletes RFC 6347and the paragraph in questions was 
extensively revised; the offending text is removed.

5. https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid4105

Proposed dispatch: reject
Rationale: RFC 9147 obsoletes RFC 6347 and the two sections were merged into 
one.

6. https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid4642

Proposed dispatch: reject
Rationale: RFC 9147 obsoletes RFC 6347, the field has been renamed, and the 
field’s explanation updated.

7. https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid5903

Proposed dispatch: reject
Rationale: RFC 9147 obsoletes RFC 6347 and the paragraph in questions was 
extensively revised; the offending text is reworded.

8. https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid5026

Proposed dispatch: reject
Rationale: RFC 9147 obsoletes RFC 6347 and the 2119-language for the length is 
no longer in RFC 9147.

Cheers,
spt
