I think that having only one step ahead to reach final status is *much* less of a psychological barrier, and the name "Internet Standard" is a *much* more appealing target than "Draft Standard". Therefore, I believe this change will be a significant step forward. > 2/ I think the proposal must specifically deal with the 2026 IPR licence > requirement in section 4.1.2 > > If patented or otherwise controlled technology > is required for implementation, the separate implementations must > also have resulted from separate exercise of the licensing process.

Actually the draft does not appear to require interoperability testing at all: "* There are a significant number of implementations with successful operational experience." Is that intentional? I thought interop was generally regarded as fundamental. So I think the text needs to be explicit about which bits of section 4.1.2 of RFC 2026 still apply. Or expand the sentence by adding ", including interoperation between different implementations when meaningful." (It's "when meaningful" because some standards such as MIB modules don't interoperate as such, see RFC 2438.) On another point: "5. Open Question Regarding STD Numbers" IMHO the easiest solution is still what I suggested some years ago: retain STD numbers, but assign them at the PS stage. That removes the confusion about a PS that updates a numbered Standard. Brian
