Thanks all. Based on the list discussion, the chairs believe there
is rough consensus on the following points:

For TLS 1.3:
- Remove GMT time from the ClientHello entirely.
- Remove GMT time from the ServerHello at the MUST or SHOULD level.

For TLS 1.2:
- Remove GMT time from the ClientHello entirely.
- Remove GMT time from the ServerHello at the SHOULD level.

Next steps for TLS 1.3 are as follows:
The editor is directed to remove GMT time from both random values
and open an issue as to whether or not the ServerHello can have
a time value in it.

Next steps for TLS 1.2 are as follows:
Absent any objections, the chairs intend to adopt draft-matthewson
as a WG draft. Anyone who objects to this, please say something by
Friday June 27.
