Sending kink to IETF last call
Hi. I reviewed kink 10. I'm really impressed at all the work that
has gone into this version and the previous versions. I appreciate
the working group's efforts in working with me to resolve my comments.
I realize it was frustrating, but I think we have an excellent spec to
bring to the IESG.
I'm going to send kink for an ietf last call. If we're lucky we may
have IESG approval by the end of the year.
I do have two comments. The first is regarding section 10. Is the
advice there actually true? Just because I have a keytab doesn't mean
others won't be using u2u. I'd like to propose removing this section.
Also, I seem to recall that Kink is actually implemented. I'm a bit
confused how that works. As far as I know neither MIT nor Heimdal
actually ship something that implements an RFC 3961 PRF. Did the Kink
implementation include its own version of the 3961 PRF? If so, can we
compare test vectors?
