Hello

Some time ago I asked some friends of mine to review the PS/AS
documents.
The night before leaving for IETF-64 I was over for dinner at Robert
Burgess
and he had some comments on the document, but since he haven't sent
them to the list, I'm do it for him.

The general comments was that -01 is a great improvement over -00.

The amount of abbreviations are bad since they are so closed to each
other (S-SAB vs SAB), we confused each other some some times because
of that.

Robert found the idea of removing authentication much clearer but the
document
was really lacking in the channel-binding case. He saw many more
features
that could be mentioned, like moving encryption to IPsec layer for
performance
reasons (this is indirectly mentioned in introduction, but not in the
text itself), ability
to change encryption to a stronger encryption for the application
without modifying
the transport itself.

Love
