Dear Jerome, I had an action after our last virtual meeting to provide a pointer to an RFC that updated another RFC, without replacing the previous RFC. The one I am most familiar with, is https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8540.html. I was the responsible AD for that RFC when it was printed. Based on my experience with that RFC (details on request, but https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc8540/ballot/ would give you some ideas),* here's what I'm suggesting that Cellar do differently* when we are updating https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc8794/. - Use something like "Extensible Binary Meta Language: Errata and Corrections for RFC 8794" as the title. - If we call this something like " Extensible Binary Meta Language: Corrections to RFC 8794" At some point, someone would ask about the relationship between the corrections in this draft and the corresponding errata in https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=8794&rec_status=15&presentation=table (and there aren't any), so I'd avoid the use of the term "errata" anywhere in this draft in this draft. - I'd make clear early in this draft where these errors WERE reported to the working group - is it correct that they were all raised as issues in ietf-wg-cellar/ebml-specification? - Target standards-track, not Informational, so that this draft can update RFC 8794, which is also standards-track, and include "Updates: 8794" as part of the document header. - Use a three-part format for each correction - "text in RFC 8794", "what's incorrect or unclear in that text", and "replacement text for RFC 8794". If you include the strings "OLD" and "NEW" in front of the original text and replacement text, everyone will understand what you're doing. If you'd like for me to take a look at a rough outline for this draft before you start chewing on it in earnest, I'm happy to do that. When you've got a rough outline, please let me/Michael know - we will want to create a milestone for this draft in the datatracker, with an estimated date, and ask Murray to approve it. If this draft turns out to contain more than 8-10 corrections, we'll be talking seriously with our AD about whether making the changes in a replacement for RFC 8794 would be more appropriate, but we can trip over that boulder if we get to it. Does that make sense to you (and to the working group)? Best, Spencer
