The IESG has received a request from the DNS-based Authentication of Named Entities WG (dane) to consider the following document: - 'The DNS-Based Authentication of Named Entities (DANE) Protocol for Transport Layer Security (TLS)' <draft-ietf-dane-protocol-19.txt> as a 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 2012-04-25. 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 Encrypted communication on the Internet often uses Transport Level Security (TLS), which depends on third parties to certify the keys used. This document improves on that situation by enabling the administrators of domain names to specify the keys used in that domain's TLS servers. This requires matching improvements in TLS client software, but no change in TLS server software. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dane-protocol/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dane-protocol/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
