Re: [6lo] Revised draft Milestone for 6lo

[Samita Chakrabarti <[e-mail]>]

Hi Carsten,

Thanks for the feedback.

The milestone is in a drafty form now.  The drafts are grouped and the timeline indicates the boundary timeline. Some of them can be done earlier than the deadline - for example the GHC and LowpanZ drafts by Nov if they are ready to proceed.

As for the 6lowpan-mib document, we can start discussing the document and ask the wg for input.

Let's discuss the rest in the wg meeting and come up with a more realistic milestone timeline after that.

Sounds good (actually this should be done by the end of November).

(GHC-06 expired a couple of days ago, I was waiting for 6lo approval and will now resubmit as "draft-bormann-6lo-ghc-00".)

Let's feedback with Kerry about this -- there was some work back at the BACnet base that needed to be done.
I don't know how far advanced that is.  (I hope we can have a resubmit as -6lo before the deadline, too.)

This has already received some review in 6LoWPAN, so I think it could be in the 2013 bucket.

Similar comment as with 6lobac.

These sound about right for May 2014, we should have finished the necessary discussion by then.

(This only makes sense if we adopt it earlier, and may be a bit late actually.)

I'm missing a milestone for GHC WGLC.

> June    2014 WG last call for adopted IPv6-over-foo I-Ds

These could come earlier or later, depending on foo.
Do one milestone per foo.

Interesting idea.  Let's talk about that in Vancouver.

Same question as Juergen has.  Do we have the energy for something like this?

Again, I'd do this per document.

I'm not sure the roadmap document should turn RFC at this point already, but we can discuss this in Vancouver.
