Re: [hiprg] HIPRG document process

Hi,

I would change the point 13 in the list to HIP EAP since SRP has patent 
issues.

BR,

Andrei and I have discussed formulating such a process for the past month or two, and have also raised the issue for discussion within the Internet Research Steering Group (IRSG).  Below is a policy that seems appropriate for our research group.

It may also be the case that the document is later transferred to the HIP working group in the IETF if the HIP working group wants to adopt it.

Anyone may propose (on the mailing list) a draft to be advanced to research group status, at which time the chairs will ask on the mailing list whether there is support. There must be some level of positive acknowledgment by non-authors to help review and improve the document to take this action.  If the chairs believe that the criteria are met, the draft can be advanced to research group status.  Authors may be asked to resolve comments or concerns and come back to the list with a revised draft at a later time.

To keep things moving along, draft status will be reviewed at the beginning of each research group meeting.  Open issues may be tracked on the wiki or in an issue tracker.  If a draft languishes (no progress on open issues) after being identified as a research group draft, it may be taken off the list of research group drafts at a future date.
