Re: [nfsv4] I-D Action: draft-ietf-nfsv4-flex-files-13.txt

[David Noveck <[e-mail]>]

There is a need to adress the issue of a last call for flex-files-13.

I previously suggested extending the -12 LC to encompass the -13 and ending
on 8/21, but Spencer on 8/8 responded:.

> Thanks for the suggestion, Dave.  However, we will let the timer run on
the current last call (ends on Friday).

> Once that is complete, we will start another last call on the version of
the I-D that is available then.

Since that last call ended on 8/11, the version available now is -13.so we
have to start that new last call.

> Note that this is always the case - if there has been enough change
during a last call to warrant another round, then we do another last call.
Not a big deal.

I think it is pretty clear that there has been enough change.  If there is
anyone who disagrees, please speak up..

The only remaIning issue is the the end date.  I previously proposed a
two-week last call period to enable me to do
a comprehensive review.  Others might want to focus on the security changes
in -13 but I skipped a comprehensive
review of -12 because it was always pretty clear there would have to be a
-13.

Two weeks from today would be 8/29.  However, it may be simpler to make the
end date the following Fridiay, which is 9/1.
Is Tom and the rest of the working group OK with that end date for the -13
WGLC?
