announcement contains the following sections:
Technical Summary:
This document is an update to RFC 6506. Primary motivation to refresh the
RFC was some Errata's raised which pointed towards ambiguities in text. This
update provides clear recommendations to ensure interoperability between
multiple implementations.
Working Group Summary:
There was some good discussion among Errata authors and document authors to
come to consensus on exact text being added for the needed clarification.
Also a review was done with Ran Atkinson and Sean Turner for some text
change around Cryptographic Authentication Procedure.
Document Quality:
The incremental update to RFC6506 are minimal and are primarily to clarify
some text to ensure interoperability.
Personnel:
Abhay Roy is the document shepherd and Stewart Bryant is the responsible AD.
