Hi Aijun,
Thanks for the inputs.
I plan to include a new section on the summary of the changes for both documents.
I also agree that the explanation of the methodology in draft-ietf-6man-ipv6-alt-mark can be reduced.

Regards,

Giuseppe

Hi, All:
I support these two documents' adoptions.
And I also concur with the discussion conclusion, that there should be one summary of the changes at the begin of the documents.

And, once it is adopted ,should the contents in
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-6man-ipv6-alt-mark-13 be simplified? It seems that that document describes also all the methodologies again?

RFC8321bis and RFC8889bis. It is to elevate the Experimental RFCs to Standard Track. There are several implementations (e.g.
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6man-ipv6-alt-mark/  that need a normative reference for the methodology. Our initial approach was to use the informative reference but it was not accepted by the IESG. Therefore it was suggested to obsolete the experimental docs with new standard docs.

Yes.  I have followed the thread and did voice my support for new RFC which I am glad to see.  And below ...

[GF]: Thank you for the support.

> Please note that, for both drafts, you can find the Changes Log in
Appendix with all the modifications from the original RFCs for each version.
  ... Yes but that is not quite what I had in mind.   Think of an 
implementor who has accurately implemented RFC8321; they need to know if and how to change the code, they do not want a blow-by-blow account of every text change, how the RFC-to-be came to be what it is, just a statement of what needs changing where (if anything); and an Appendix labelled 'Changes Log', while helpful for the WG, is a candidate for excision by the RFC Editor whereas I am thinking of an Informative appendix that is referenced by the Introduction - 'Appendix X contains a list of technical changes from RFC8321'. Look at RFC7950; this lists the changes from RFC6020 and, at the insistence of the AD, the list was split into NBC and BC and was put up front.  Your changes are likely minor but I think that RFC7950 is a template of how to format a new version of a protocol.

[GF]: Thanks for the suggestion. We can surely consider to follow the template of RFC7950. We are elevating the experimental RFCs to standard track so all the changes are just about the structure, further clarification and the use of a standard wording. No new additions to the methodology have been made. I can write a summary of the changes after the Introduction and it can be a short section that reports the recommendations for the implementation included in the standard track draft.
