eap Mailing List: RE: Issue 286: Security

[Bari, Farooq (Farooq.Bari]

Hi Sam,

Section 1 of the draft has some of the information that you are probably
looking for and the proposed text that Farid sent out is not meant to
replace that information but to add to it. There also used to be much
more information on the roaming scenarios etc.in the draft in its
earlier versions which explained the usage etc. However as the draft
went through revisions the guidance we got from EAP WG was to focus on
the main objective of the draft and not focus too much on
informational/problem statement type of dicussion in the draft. The
reference document [netsel-problem] is a draft that got trigerred by
discussions on our draft and much of the of the information on the
larger problem space now resides in that draft. We have included this
draft as the reference.

BR,

Farooq
