The IESG has received a request from the Transport Layer Security WG (tls) to consider the following document: - 'Transport Layer Security (TLS) Application Layer Protocol Negotiation Extension' <draft-ietf-tls-applayerprotoneg-03.txt> as Proposed Standard 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 2013-12-27. 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. Abstract This document describes a Transport Layer Security (TLS) extension for application layer protocol negotiation within the TLS handshake. For instances in which the TLS connection is established over a well known TCP/IP port not associated with the desired application layer protocol, this extension allows the application layer to negotiate which protocol will be used within the TLS session. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tls-applayerprotoneg/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tls-applayerprotoneg/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
