#41: internded status for draft minimal


Comment (by [e-mail]):

 from the interim call minutes, Nov 27th

 o       [Michael] no intended surveys, but BCPs ("profile") say that,
 "when using protocol X in context Y, you SHOULD use parameters Z". This is
 for operators rather than implementors. Minimal says you to use RPL, which
 you would not implement if you were just using IEEE802.15.4e. AD asked
 whether this will be used beyond a plugtest.
 o       [Pascal] node requirements for IPv6 is informational, it does not
 mandate behaviors. Just information about the mote; but doesn't use
 "MUST". Minimal draft does say you need to compute the RPL rank according.
 That draft is what this is specified, so it's not just setting parameters.
 Think we are beyond informational.
 o       [Malisa] agreed with Pascal & Michael, would make sense to publish
 as standards track. The DTLS profile that is a similar scope, is intended
 to be published as standards track.
 o       [Michael] RFC6434 list RFCs that you are expected you should look
 at. RFC6434 should not have been informational. Strictly speaking,
 informational are not standards.
 o       [Michael] we have a BCP number, but no informational numbers.
 o       [Thomas] Consensus on Standards track. How do we proceed? We are
 building on top of it Default setup on top of it.
 o       [Michael] A good answer. We have not articulated that.
 o       [Thomas] It is important to publish this. Standard track. RPL rank
 no anywhere else. This is the spec.
 o       [Pascal] Nobody wants informational, better standard track.
 Recommendation for developers than for deployers.
 o       [Thomas] Discuss on the ML.
