  Yes.

* remove all references to PAC

* Send Identity-Hint with all configured Phase 2 identities

  https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-emu-rfc7170bis-19#section-4.2.20

* Mandate support for TLS 1.2 or later

  https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-emu-rfc7170bis-19#phase1

* Double-check ciphers as per the previous link

 Those are the minimal changes which will make TEAP better.  I'll see if myself or a member of my team cal look at these in the new year.

 We could also add:

* Certificate provisioning

  https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-emu-rfc7170bis-19#name-certificate-provisioning-wi

  However, I'm not aware of any other TEAP peer or server which currently supports this workflow.  There are unresolved issues, such as if you use unauthenticated provisioning mode because you lack credentials, how can you prove who you are, in order to get a certificate provisioned?

  These, and other, questions have remained unanswered in the IETF EMU working group, and by the various proponents of TEAP.  I don't claim to understand what TEAP is supposed to do.  I was just the unfortunate person responsible for copy-editing 7170bis.
