[Last-Call] Re: [lamps] Tsvart last call review of draft-ietf-lamps-rfc6712bis-07

["Brockhaus, Hendrik" <hendrik.brockhaus=40siemens.com@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Initially we changed ‘man-in-the-middle attacker’ to ‘on-path attacker’. Tim proposed to use ‘meddler-in-the-middle’ to keep the abbreviation MITM. There were also other proposalsmade.

I am no native speaker. I am happy to update to whatever people think is most appropriate.

Hello,

what's about a gender neutral name? "Mandy" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandy_(name)) would be close to "Man".

Regards,
Dieter

I just talked to Tim Hollebeek.
He proposed to change 'man-in-the-middle' to 'meddler-in-the-middle' to stay with the abbreviation MITM.

<tp>
One of our ADs always used to use 'Monkey in the Middle' which seemed suitably asexual,

Hi,

Two counterpoints. First, "man-in-the-middle" is a term of the art.
It does not lend itself to word swapping. I don't think it is wise
to invent new terms for a well established term.

the IETF has agreement to use the guidance in NIST.IR.8366. The
proposed rewording is aligned with Section 4.1 of NIST.IR.8366.

Thanks,
Lars
