To those considering the TLS-authz proposal: The patent shenanigans of RedPhone Security have reduced implementation status from "open" to "taxed at the whim of RedPhone Security." This should be enough to disqualify the proposal from further consideration unless, and until, RedPhone Security grants a royalty-free license for all users. The imprimatur of the IETF should remain reserved for open standards. Thank you for considering my position.
