Document: draft-ietf-mile-xmpp-grid-09 Reviewer: Christer Holmberg Review Date: 2019-01-04 IETF LC End Date: 2019-01-14 IESG Telechat date: Not scheduled for a telechat Summary: The document is well written, easy to read, and technically I have no issues. However, as shown below, I do have some questions for clarifications. Major issues: None Minor issues: Q1: There is no explanation of what kind of security-related information is distributed. What kind of security? I assume it is some kind of application security, and not XMPP security. Q2: Is there a reason why XMPP-Grid is only defined for security-related information? Isn’t XMPP-Grid a way of distributing ANY type on information in a secure manner? Q3: It is not clear to me what XMPP-Grid provides that “normal” secure XMPP doesn’t. Is XMPP-Grid only an architecture, using standard XMPP components? If so, I think that should be made more clear. Q4: While section 8 does reference RFC 6120 for the usage of TLS, I can’t find any references to other security considerations in RFC 6120. Is everything in section 8 XMPP-Grid specific? Q5: Section 4 talks about a “typical” workflow. I assume that means there could be others? Nits/editorial comments: Q6: The document talks about using XMPP-Grid for distributing “security-relevant”/”security-related” information. I suggest using consistent terminology.
