Hi,
I am not sure which key requirement you are referring to, or why TLS
1.3 should not see widespread use. In fact, TLS 1.3 is getting much
more traction already than TLS 1.2 ever had in a comparable amount of
time: https://arxiv.org/abs/1907.12762. I am not sure why you speak of
a fragmentation of protocols here - if anything, we are seeing
consolidation.
I don't have any number for SMTP or IMAP, but judging from my own
experience: our implementations upgraded to OpenSSL 1.1.1 and we got TLS
1.3 enabled for free. I suspect many other people in the same boat.

It seems weird to leave a BCP in a state that is not referring to the
BP, which is definitely TLS 1.3 - due to the many additions made. TLS
1.3 also brings changes that are important for applications - 0-RTT,
for example, has no replay protection, and should only be used with
idempotent requests. While that is spelled out in the RFC, it's not
where our audience would look (or we would not need BCPs).
It's also worthwhile to deprecate < TLS 1.2, and discuss under which
circumstances TLS 1.3 is preferable to TLS 1.2 (that's more a business
question). Add to that a discussion of PSK. Plus a few new extensions,
some defined in separate RFCs (eSNI for example).
I am, of course, both an author on the old (and new) BCP, and also an
author of the study I cite - but I think there's enough to warrant the
-bis.

What is the point of rfc7525bis? Why do we need it?
It seems to me that RFC7525 is a good set of recommendations and
little has changed, in practical terms, since it was produced,
although cryptanalysts can find weaknesses therein

The one change I am aware of is that the TLS WG has produced TLS
1.3 - I follow the TLS WG mailing list - but so what? TLS 1.3
failed to meet one key requirement and I am unclear whether or not
TLS 1.3 will gain widespread use in the Internet, with HTTP, SMTP
and such like. I see TLS 1.2 as being adequate for most purposes
for some time to come so my concern is that rfc5575bis will simply
be an endorsement of the work of the TLS WG - 1.3 is great, ditch
everything else - leading to further fragmentation of the protocols.
So, I am against adoption until it is clear that the I-D will
endorse TLS 1..2 as adequate for most purposes. After all, the
TLS WG has yet to propose an I-D 'TLS 1.2 - Die, Die, Die'

Subject: [Uta] Adoption call for draft-sheffer-uta-rfc7525bis-00
________________________________________________________________________________
Hi,
during the last virtual interim meeting the draft
draft-sheffer-uta-bcp195bis-00 was presented and the authors asked
for its
adoption.
The general feeling in the room was in favor of the adoption, however
the authors were asked to rename it to *-rfc7525-bis.
The authors have renamed the draft and asked the chairs for its
adoption.
Since our responsible AD thinks agrees that this work is within
the charter
of the WG, the chairs are issuing a formal call for adoption
to confirm the results we had at the meeting.
This message starts a two weeks call for adoption of the
draft-sheffer-uta-rfc7525bis-00 draft.
The call will end up 10 May 2020. Please send your opinions to the
list
before this date.
Please if possible include any reasons supporting your opinion. If you
support this adoption,
please indicate whether you are ready to review this draft if it
becomes a
WG document.
Regards,
Leif & Valery.
