The IESG has received a request from an individual submitter to consider the following document: - 'On the Use of Channel Bindings to Secure Channels ' <draft-williams-on-channel-binding-01.txt> as a Proposed Standard The introduction of this draft implies that the facility being discussed applies only to GSS-API. That is not the case and the rest of the draft is clear on this point; this draft proposes to generalize and clarify a facility that exists today in GSS-API both for GSS-API use and for other authentication frameworks. The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2007-04-11. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. The file can be obtained via http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-williams-on-channel-binding-01.txt IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/public/pidtracker.cgi?command=view_id&dTag=15078&rfc_flag=0 _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
