Status update for WG tcpinc at IETF-97

The WG drafts on the encryption negotiation option (TCP-ENO) and unauthenticated encryption mechanism (tcpcrypt) are making good progress.  A few small scope issues are being discussed with cryptographers at CFRG.  WG Last Call on both drafts is anticipated shortly after the Seoul IETF meeting week.  The TLS work for tcpinc has been postponed because finishing TLS 1.3 is higher priority for the TLS experts.

A draft on (sockets) API extensions, primarily for TCP-ENO, has been adopted by the WG - the chairs are looking for additional interest in working on that draft, as well as interest in additional implementation(s) of TCP-ENO and tcpcrypt.
