[Last-Call] Secdir last call review of draft-ietf-lisp-name-encoding-08

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Reviewer: Rich Salz
Review result: Serious Issues

This is a very short draft that adds "names" to LISP identifiers.

Major nit: Why is ASCII used for names rather than UTF-8? Related, no mention
of punycode as a UTF8 alternative. If UTF8 was considered and then rejected as
not needed, there should probably be a justfication for that decision in the
document.

A document which is part of a system "which are intended to replace most use of
IP addresses" that limits names to the ASCII character set should not be
approved.

Minor nit: "Distinguished Name" has a long history with X.509 certificates and
I could not get past my confusion. Is another name possible?  Okay if the
answer is no.
