Please send comments to the authors. However, in response to the
query:
> Do you believe the latest draft addresses the issues of cookie privacy
> that were recently discussed on www-security?
the response was:
> I think I've persuaded most people that the remaining issues are not
> with the protocol but with the user interface. (That is, the UA must
> give a user sufficient control over the disposition of sessions and
> cookies.)
which I believe is a satisfactory response.
