Summary: Ready with nits



This is a clear and straightforward document, which requires the client and
server TLS implementations to not use the RC4 cipher suites, and lists in an
appendix the cipher suites defined for TLS use RC4.

The document was not updated since my initial review, so the only nit I
mentioned in that review is still to be fixed.





Major issues:



None



Minor issues:



None



Nits/editorial comments:



There is one nit easy to fix – bracketed references of the RFCs updated by this
document. are used in the Abstract. These need to be replaced by textual
references to the RFCs.
