[TLS] TLS document status update

[<Pasi.Eronen at nokia.com>]

Here's a short status update on TLS WG documents:

draft-ietf-tls-rfc4346-bis

   This is in RFC Editor final AUTH48 stage, so it should be out 
   as RFC 5246 soon.

draft-ietf-tls-rsa-aes-gcm: 

   The draft went through WGLC, and Joe posted version -03 which
   seems to address the WGLC comments.  Unless there are
   objections, this will be sent to AD evaluation once the chairs
   get the Document Shepherd Write-Up written.

draft-ietf-tls-ecc-new-mac

   The draft also went through WGLC; version -05 seems to address
   the WGLC comments, but has some editorial nits. Once Eric 
   submits version -06, this will be sent to AD evaluation.

draft-ietf-tls-rfc4366-bis
   
   The only technical issue is whether (and how) to mandate
   including the hash in certificate_url message. Everyone except
   Nelson has supported making the hash mandatory.

   If I understand Nelson's view correctly, he considers the
   original use case for omitting the hash (CA automatically posts
   renewed certificates at certain URL, and the client does not
   necessarily have a copy of the latest cert) more important than
   the (rather theoretical) attacks that omitting the hash might
   have. Nelson, would this be a fair summary of your objection?  

draft-ietf-tls-extractor

   The draft is basically ready for WGLC -- hopefully starts soon.
   
draft-ietf-tls-des-idea

   The draft is basically ready for WGLC, but has been waiting
   until the other documents progress.

draft-ietf-tls-ecdhe-psk

   The draft is basically ready for WGLC, but has been waiting
   until the other documents progress.

Best regards,
Pasi
