Hello again!
I have also just made changes to the official "best practices" document
at:
* gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/docs/best-practices.txt
* gopher://gemini.circumlunar.space/0/docs/best-practices.txt
* https://gemini.circumlunar.space/docs/best-practices.txt
There is a new section on TLS cipher suites wherein it is recommended
that anybody who is supporting TLS 1.2 (which is optional according to
the spec, but more or less a practical requirement at this point in
order to be able to communicate with clients/servers using e.g. LibreSSL
or BearSSL) supports only a minimal subset of it to provide similar
security to TLS 1.3.
This might be a nice thing for server testing tools (like
gemini-diagnostics) to optionally test!
Cheers,
Solderpunk
