Reviewer: Samir Barguil
Review result: Has Nits

I have reviewed this document as part of the Operational Directorate's ongoing
effort to review all IETF documents being processed by the IESG. These comments
are intended to improve the operational aspects of IETF drafts.

This document updates the definitions provided in Section 3.1.1 (SSL/TLS
Protocol Versions) of RFC 9325, focusing on the adoption of more modern and
secure TLS versions. The primary motivation for this update is the widespread
adoption of TLS 1.3, making it crucial for new protocols to acknowledge and
support its use.

Major issues:
No
Minor issues:
No

Nits:

- The Abstract states that this document updates RFC 9325. However, in Section
5, the changes are explained, but it is unclear whether the sole intent of this
document is to introduce these updates or if it has a broader scope, as other
related topics are also discussed.

- In the following paragraph, does "these efforts" refer to the efforts of this
draft specifically, or does it refer to broader cryptographic
industry/technology efforts?

"For TLS, it is important to note that the focus of these efforts is
TLS 1.3 or later, and that TLS 1.2 will not be supported (see
[TLS12FROZEN]). This is one more reason for new protocols to default
to TLS 1.3, where PQC is actively being standardized, as this gives
new applications the option to use PQC."
