Comment(by nickm):
So here's what I think the stages are:
1. Sketch out some initial designs.
2. Show these to the people I know who are involved with the TLS working
group, and see if they think I'm fundamentally insane. Iterate until the
basic designs seem right.
3. Write up the deisgns in internet-draft form. Get help from others as I
do so.
4. Submit them.
5. receive comments, revise as needed, iterate.
I fully suspect that one or both of these ideas might get shot down at
some point in the process, especially at step 4. But that's why we
committed to internet drafts, not to RFCs.
Now, as for the timeline on these steps, obviously we should get to stage
5 as soon as we can for maximal utility, but I believe that only stage 3
or 4 is what we promised for November.
Hm. I think I could do stage 1 and start stage 2 in April. I don't know,
after that point, how long stage 2 and stage 3 will take, but perhaps I
can have a better sense then?
