Ballot Text

Technical Summary

   This document updates the CoAP-DTLS profile for ACE described in RFC
   9202 by specifying that the profile applies to TLS as well as DTLS.

Working Group Summary

No controversies were encountered. The draft is an extending a core document of the ACE WG.

GENART review of this document recommended minting a 9202bis version of the document instead of the update style taken with this document.  That was not the consensus of the WG.

Document Quality

Per implementations: [1] supports CoAP transport over DTLS and TLS using libcoap [2]. The client-side retry with different transport layer security is not yet implemented.
