Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) over Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP)
draft-ietf-tsvwg-dtls-over-sctp-bis-07

This email reports the WG Chair's position on 9th May 2022:

1. draft-ietf-tsvwg-dtls-over-sctp-bis will continue as a TSVWG work item, targeting publication as a PS. This draft has declared IPR that will be considered as a part of the WGLC, along with technical aspects of the proposed specification and any experience from implementations.

2. The editors are requested to update draft-ietf-tsvwg-dtls-over-sctp-bis as soon as possible, so that this draft does not now propose to obsolete RFC 6083. They should ensure the update contains a section that allows a different draft to subsequently also update (and possibly obsolete) RFC 6083, and need to describe how future alternative specifications could co-exist.

3. A different draft that also seeks to update RFC 6083 could also be proposed and would seem suitable for future initial working group discussion.

4. The decision on whether to change the status of RFC 6083 might be discussed as a part of WGLC, if new information emerges.
