Ballot Text

Technical Summary

This document updates HTTP/2 to prohibit TLS 1.3 post-handshake authentication, as an analog to
existing TLS 1.2 renegotiation restriction.

Working Group Summary

This document was prepared when Working Group members noticed that the
restrictions for post-handshake authentication in HTTP/2, which were
designed with the constraints of TLS 1.2 in mind, no longer were
necessary for TLS 1.3.

Document Quality

This is a very short update to address that. It has wide support amongst
the working group, including from implementers.

Personnel

Mark Nottingham is the Document Shepherd; Barry Leiba is the responsible
Area Director.
