Document: draft-turner-md2-to-historic Reviewer: Kathleen Moriarty Review Date: November 9, 2010 IETF LC End Date: November 9, 2010 IESG Telechat date: (if known) Summary: This draft is basically ready for publication, but has nits that should be fixed before publication. The intent of this draft is to retire the MD2 message digest algorithm and providing the justification. This draft also requests that RFC 1319 be moved to historic. Major issues: Minor issues: Nits/editorial comments: Section 4: Impact of Moving MD2 to Historic The first bullet in the subsection "Regarding PS RFCs:" starts with Further, however it is the first bullet so I recommend changing it to read: "MD2 support in TLS was dropped in TLS 1.1" Section 7: Recommendation I recommend breaking the first paragraph into two sentences as follows: Despite MD2 seeing some deployment on the Internet, this specification recommends obsoleting MD2. MD2 is not a reasonable candidate for further standardization and should be deprecated in favor of one or more existing hash algorithms (e.g., SHA-256 [SHS]). I apologize for the slow turn around on this review. Work has been hectic!
