[apps-discuss] Alexey's next to the last AD report

[Alexey Melnikov <[e-mail]>]

I meant to write a "Christmas edition" of my usual AD report, but things 
got a bit out of hand with trying to finish various IESG related tasks.

At the moment, I am holding a DISCUSS on a single document 
(draft-ietf-tls-rfc4347-bis-04 
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tls-rfc4347-bis/>.txt), but 
this should be resolved before or around Prague. Other DISCUSSes were 
either cleared, or were taken by other ADs who would remain on IESG 
after Prague.

At the moment I am concentrating on finishing sponsoring of a few 
remaining drafts:

1) draft-ietf-httpbis-content-disp-06 - in IETF LC and I hope to get it 
approved on March 17th IESG telechat. If this doesn't happen, Peter will 
be taking over the sponsoring of this document.
2) draft-holsten-about-uri-scheme-06 - I am trying to get this approved, 
but authors are not responding to my emails recently. Peter will take 
over this document, if I don't get it approved for publication.
3) draft-meadors-multiple-attachments-ediint-10 - This should be 
reviewed by IESG on March 17th. I am hoping this can get approved before 
my AD term ends at the end of March.
4) draft-salowey-secsh-uri-00 - Waiting for the author to revise the 
draft to address IETF LC comments. I am not certain that this document 
will be approved before Prague.
5) draft-ietf-tsvwg-iana-ports-10 - Reviewed by IESG. I need to enter 
some RFC Editor notes to address IESG and some IETF LC comments. I hope 
to get this approved before Prague.
6) draft-bryan-metalinkhttp-21 - In IESG review on March 3rd. Good 
effort from editors to clear DISCUSSes on the document. I am hoping to 
get this approved before Prague.

I am spending a significant amount of my time tracking EAI and HYBI WGs.
I am planning to close MORG WG before Prague.
I am hoping to either close or start rechartering discussion for YAM 
before Prague.

I am also trying to finish some IESG/IETF related projects:
1). Trying to finish Sieve External List (one of my documents) with 
Barry Leiba. Approval of this document would release 3 related Sieve RFCs.
2). Several related discussions on making URI/Media Type review 
processes easier and more transparent. I am hoping to discuss some 
proposed changes in Prague (during the Apps Area meeting), plus make 
some process/tool changes on IESG side (at least for MIME types)

If you think this list is missing something, please let me know.

Best Regards,
Alexey
