["Templin (US), Fred L" <[e-mail]>]

I think Jon Postel, Bob Braden and many other Internet founders would have approved.

Per the Madrid recorded presentation:

Requested by the IESG, March 2007

  *   First version draft-touch July 2007
  *   Discussions begin…

INTAREA adoption July 2010

  *   Significant revision 2015, with figures and revised terminology
  *   Another significant revision 2016, with more figures and expanded terminology

Largely complete by 2018

  *   Then a hiatus due to job shift

It looks like this document became an intarea WG item in March 2010; maybe it
was ahead of its time, and the time has now arrived.

Folks,

This is an excellent overview of tunnel technology. However, I wonder if the publication of this draft will change anyone's behavior. If not, I wonder if the IETF stream is the right place for this document. Maybe the independent stream is more appropriate? Maybe the Internet Protocol Journal or a blog? Maybe even a chapter in a textbook?



I think it should be published as an RFC as It has originally been intended to. Unfortunately it has been (probably unnecessarily ) delayed for a long time.

Dear IntArea WG,



The authors of Draft https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-intarea-tunnels-15<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-intarea-tunnels-15__;!!NEt6yMaO-gk!AST0foNqNIWijq2ReXb3w8D4mUd3Sx53MI5Quv7oqyWSY5IiiLSevttp23VbJW6DPwYlIGVUjeYKV6KJK2lGv0LA3FpSqC0$> are requesting a WGLC. The latest draft was presented at IETF 123 and we heard some comments from the floor.



Hence, we are starting now a 2-week WG Last Call. We would like to receive at least 5 substantial reviews to move forward.



Please express your support/comments by replying to this email. To compensate for the summer break, the call will end on Friday the 22nd of August (AoE).



Thanks,



Juan-Carlos & Wassim

(IntArea WG chairs)
