Section 1 - General Comments
  
Section 5.4 states: 
5.4 New security information
 
The Working Group will neither create nor extend any protocol or data

The Working Group will neither create nor extend any network protocol
or data format, nor create recommendations for protocols or data
formats that are not yet widely deployed. Recommendations will only
be made for the management of the user experience as it deals with
