Re: SDNAuth - Secure SDN authentication and authorization - Interested?

Hi Dave,

I didn't read this thread the same way you did.  I read it as Ted
pointing out that the Notewell will be important for contributors to
understand applies for any submission that comes to the IETF.

You can look at the SecAuth archive to see why it was shutdown.  Many
were glad as the work was taking too long to become focused into an
achievable set of goals.  A push to go back to the drawing board was
needed.  If it's an IETF list, many feel they have to follow it and
the work wasn't ready for that yet.  We'll re-evaluate the proposal
when they have had time to narrow the scope and figure out what
problem they want to solve most.

Best regards,
Kathleen
