Features: DTLS 1.3 and QUIC

[seppy87]

Hallo,

since my DTLS Server and Client are working now 👍 I am wondering what is planned for the future in this library?

DTLS v1.3 ?
QUIC ?

and since I am using dynamic bindings. Do you wish to have a special thanks/mentioning for your project in my Documentation?

Greetings

TLS 1.3 support is on the horizon and DTLS 1.3 support will presumably follow. IIRC the DTLS 1.3 RFC hasn't been finalized yet. Either this year or next year.

QUIC is (IIRC, and I haven't read the recent drafts) based on/using TLS 1.3 handshake, so naturally it would come behind 1.3 support in any case. An full QUIC impl in the library is somewhat less likely, unless someone stepped up who had an interest in driving and maintaining the code. (Read: I don't have a personal need for QUIC nor has anyone offered to pay me to write it, so for me it falls behind improvements that meet one of those criteria). More likely endpoint is we just offer TLS 1.3 with the necessary hooks and primitives needed to implement QUIC in an external library.

Probably the amount you are thinking of exceeds the amount I am capable of as normal human.
