Agree that it would be good publish a timely revision clarifying these issues. 
Doing so improves the current situation.

I don’t think we have to prioritize formal verification versus getting out a 
timely revision clarifying the issues. We could start formal verification and 
at the same time publish a revision. If the formal verification later show that 
more changes are needed, we publish 9147bisbis.

FWIW, I generally agree with John that it would be best if everything 
nontrivial that comes out of TLS WG was formally verified (props to to Muhamed, 
Arto, Hannes and Thomas for doing that for TLS attestation). I also think it 
would be helpful to have some kind of formal analysis for 9147-bis and I'd 
definitely be interested in participating in it.

I do think the situation is a little different in this case because we already 
published DTLS 1.3 and the purpose of the -bis is to fix some known issues, so 
at the end of the day we may have to prioritize formal verification versus 
getting out a timely revision clarifying these issues. However, the process 
will take some time, so we certainly do not have to decide now and the best way 
to avoid having to is to try to get the analysis moving sooner rather than 
later.

When everything goes smoothly, it’s the working group that gets the credit. But 
when something goes wrong, the blame falls squarely on the authors.

I am looking forward to your contributions to the formal analysis since you 
missed the opportunity last time.

Hi,

I support adoption and just like Russ I look forward to formal verification. 
Formal verification would likely have caught several of the issues identified 
by David Benjamin as well as the issues with post-handshake messages when 
replay protection is turned off identified by me. I hope everything going out 
the TLS WG in the future will be formally verified.

Cheers,
John

I do not object, but I look forward to the FATT review.
