#IETF to discuss if RFC 1480 (describing the .us TLD a long time ago) should be reclassified as "Historic".
PSA for those implementing #rfc6238: READ THE ERRATA! Maybe even before reading the RFC itself. I wasted an entire day chasing my tail because the RFC contained incorrect test vectors.

At #IETF, gender is a list, not a scalar.

Gender (Check all that apply): ['man']

Drop what you're doing and listen to @masinter Larry Masinter talk about computing history and lore. He tells first hand stories on the early web, Gopher, Hypertext Coffee Pot Control Protocol, mailto:, and a whole lot more including Interlisp.

@Jayhoffmann may be interested.

TLS 1.3: l’IETF autorise le post-quantique « pur », une décision qui divise

Selon LWN.net (8 décembre 2025), un vif débat agite l’IETF autour de l’intégration du chiffrement post‑quantique dans TLS 1.3 : un projet de norme autorisant un échange de clés post‑quantique non hybride a été adopté comme document de travail, malgré des objections soulignant un affaiblissement potentiel de la sécurité. 🔐 Contexte cryptographique. L’article rappelle que Shor compromet les schémas asymétriques classiques (RSA, ECDH), d’où la migration vers des mécanismes post‑quantiques centrés sur l’échange de clés (les chiffrements symétriques restant largement épargnés). Des précédents comme la rupture de SIKE (2022) et des problèmes d’implémentation/side‑channels sur Kyber/ML‑KEM illustrent les incertitudes. En août 2024, le NIST a standardisé Kyber/ML‑KEM et recommandé des schémas hybrides combinant algos classiques et post‑quantiques, appuyés par le projet Open Quantum Safe.

ML-KEM Mythbusting

"There have been some recent concerns about ML-KEM, NIST’s standard for encryption with Post-Quantum Cryptography, related standards of the IETF, and lots of conspiracy theories about malicious actors subverting the standardization process. "

For the absence of doubt, we've published an Internet Draft calling for a conclusion to the ARC (RFC8617) experiment we developed over 10 years ago, moving what we learned from it into work on the proposed DKIM2 specification.

Concluding the ARC Experiment

This document calls for a conclusion to the experiment defined by “The Authenticated Received Chain (ARC) Protocol,” (RFC8617) and recommends that ARC no longer be deployed or relied upon between disparate senders and receivers. The document summarizes what ARC set out to do, reports on operational experience, and explains how the experience gained during the experiment is being incorporated into the proposed DKIM2 work as the successor to DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM). To avoid any future confusion, it is therefore requested that ARC (RFC8617) be marked “Obsolete” by the publication of this Internet-Draft.
