[rsab] Fwd: [IAB] Interim RSE report, August

[Mirja Kuehlewind <[e-mail]>]

Hi John,

Thanks for the report and thanks for your service!

I’m indeed cc’ing the RSAB now but I think we can still publish your report in the IAB minutes for the sake of completeness.

Regarding the XML expertise, that's probably something to discuss with the RPC directly or in the next RSAB meeting!

Enjoy our holidays!
Mirja

It is largely the same content as the former draft-iab-xml2rfc-v3-bis but since RSWG discussions appear unlikely to converge on a successor to RFC 7991 any time soon, it seemed better to offer it as a current snapshot instead.
