And here's the first guest blog post, by none other than one of the few people who I follow on Twitter because of its great content, Stefano Fago.
.
In the post, Stefano details RFC 9457, the successor of 7807. Great read!
I'm fairly confused about a #dkim neutral issue I'm having. It's a record for a survey vendor we are using and they included:
h=SHA256 I tried it at first but got neutral results so I dug into #RFC 6376; and it seems to suggest that h= is only for defining headers that are included in the value. #DNS #infosec #vendorheadaches
#dkim #rfc #dns #infosec #vendorheadaches
Bon, elle se trompe bien sur ce qu'imposent les #RFC https://www.bortzmeyer.org/3912.html
#RFC 8659 (#DNS Certification Authority Authorization (CAA) Resource Record) was clearly not written by DNS people :
The wire format diagram in section 4.1 is awful (needed to try to decipher it when those diagrams are usually straightforward)
The whole wire format of this RR is weird imo (you have 'tag length' octet then the tag in ASCII characters then the value without a value length octet. It would have been simplier to register an IANA registry for the flags.) 🤔
Is there a certification or norm or standard or protocol or #RFC or something else describing a light web based on a subset of #html where css and javascript would be excluded ?
Sites following this could be viewed by classical web browser and by "light" browser (knowing only this subset)

@jwildeboer I wanted to say that old standards are unchangeable, but if you look even the most stable ones, e.g., see https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc822 or https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1122 how many updates it has. #RFC
#IETF gives nice treats to crypto-nerds ;)
#RFC 9380: Hashing to Elliptic Curves

Les sites mal foutus, qui laissent passer les adresses mail « + » à la création du compte (c’est bien), mais que les bloquent sur la page de login (c’est mal)…
Mais c’est quoi votre problème ???? 🤦♂️ 😩

@Gary_Host @fzer0 The standards are a mess. The so-called “open” standards (#RFC¹s) are themselves now published on exclusive sites. But in any case, the real answer is not even #Firefox. It’s #lynx. If a web admin wants to demonstrate competetence and impartial interoperability, they will support Lynx browser. Then any GUI browser that would fail to function can be laughed at. 1. #Cloudflare

There were plans to replace/complement phone numbers by domain names, this is so funny!
> An ISDN (Integrated Service Digital Network) number is simply a telephone number. The intent of the members of the CCITT is to upgrade all telephone and data network service to a common service.
New #RFC 9457 :
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9457 for #APIs application/problem+json, to replace RFC 7807.
Includes a IANA registry for problem types (problem type URIs) at https://www.iana.org/assignments/http-problem-types/http-problem-types.xhtml ! Thank you Mark Nottingham, Erik Wilde, and Sanjay Dalal!
@irtf This is what people in the free world see when they try to read an #RFC on rfc-editor·org:
(apologies to the visually impaired: I could not add a text description for that image because #Mastodon’s popup dialog is dysfunctional. It’s a screenshot of a so-called open standards org refusing to let some people access the standards)
@irtf I used to read RFCs at rfc-editor·org because #ietf·org is in an exclusive #walledGarden that blocks Tor users.
Today I wanted to read #RFC2047 but I couldn’t because apparently #rfc-editor·org has joined that same exclusive walled garden.
It’s reckless & irresponsible to restrict access to “open” standards. Please fix your shit. Nothing is worse than the standards org themselves being incompetent about openness & interoperability. This is an embarrassment!
