The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Extended Kerberos Version 5 Key Distribution Center (KDC) Exchanges Over TCP ' <draft-ietf-krb-wg-tcp-expansion-02.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Kerberos Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Sam Hartman and Tim Polk. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-krb-wg-tcp-expansion-02.txt Technical Summary This document describes an extensibility mechanism for the Kerberos v5 protocol when used over TCP transports. Working Group Summary This document represents the consensus of the Kerberos Working Group. There was a concern raised by at least one person that this document should not be advanced until there was at least one extension that intended to use it. The consensus of the WG was that the document was sufficiently mature to be a proposed standard. Protocol Quality At least one implementor has indicated an intent to implement both this extension mechanism and an extension which makes use of it. Others have indicated no current plans to do so, but this is not surprising given the (current) lack of standards-track extensions which make use of this mechanism. The document shepherd for this document was Jeffrey Hutzelman. The responsible Area Director was Sam Hartman _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
