Re: [Rfced-future] Document for IAB consideration: draft-iab-rfcefdp-rfc-model-11

[Eliot Lear <[e-mail]>]

Hi Mike,

I presented the process that I expect to have happen back in the Fall 
(you may recall a detailed timeline slide - it's in the materials).  
This is an IAB stream document.  That means that RFC 4845 governs, and 
as I mentioned in the Fall, it's up to the board, not the program, to 
decide in the end how to weigh community input.  It has been my 
consistent advice that the board broadly consult, including the IETF, 
IRTF, and others, because, in my view, this program believes that's the 
right thing to do (I don't disagree).  The IESG will have to approve 
changes to the IAB charter, 2028, and a slight tweak to 2026.
