A close_notify alert "MUST" be sent prior to closing the write side of the connection in both TLS 1.2 and 1.3. I should think it's redundant to mention this in the Gemini spec since it's already required by the TLS specs, but the number of servers that don't implement TLS properly is alarmingly high, so maybe a reminder is necessary. -- Philip -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
