[dtn-interest] Six drafts approved by IESG

[Elwyn Davies <[e-mail]>]

Excellent news!

The IESG has approved the six drafts that were on today's agenda on the 
basis that they do not conflict with any IETF work.

Thanks to everybody for their hard work on these.
Several of them are ready to go to the RFC Editor immediately but we got 
a small number of comments from the ADs that  we should consider 
incorporating into the drafts before publication... so we may have just 
a little more to do on those (need to do on CBHE).

The drafts and the comments/situations are:

Tne Bundle Security protocol: 
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-irtf-dtnrg-bundle-security
[Nits from Sean Turner: 
http://maillists.intel-research.net/pipermail/dtn-interest/2011-February/004992.html]

Using Self-Delimiting Numeric Values in Protocols
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-irtf-dtnrg-sdnv
[Couple of minor nits - The Web Socket Protocol no longer uses SDNVs - 
need to remove the reference.  Also maybe improve later suggestion on 
best usage of SDNVs.]

Delay-Tolerant Networking Metadata Extension 
Blockhttp://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-irtf-dtnrg-bundle-metadata-block
[Couple of minor comments from Peter St Andre.  See datatracker.]

Delay-Tolerant Networking Previous Hop Insertion Block
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-irtf-dtnrg-bundle-previous-hop-block
[Good to go!]

Compressed Bundle Header Encoding (CBHE)
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-irtf-dtnrg-cbhe
[Needs some improvements to formal registration request for ipn: URI scheme.
Still awaiting formal review/approval from Graham Klyne (appointed 
expert reviewer.)]

Delay-Tolerant Networks (DTN) Bundle Protocol IANA Registries
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-irtf-dtnrg-iana-bp-registries
[Good to go.  Comments from Jari Arkko have been resolved.]

Let's try and get these wrapped up asap.

Regards,
Elwyn
