James, At the most basic level, I need help and I need to see reviews posted to the list. At the moment, since you are personally involved in some drafts this leaves me very exposed and this leaves us without an "RSVP" Chair. I think the directorate can help fix this. We seem to be still working out the ways the directorate can help. Here is what I think can be done, suggestions welcome: 1) If I were to see several sets of detailed comments, a few reviews of the wording and scope of sections, promises to review in the WG and contribute to WGLC, etc - My recommendation to the ADs would be much clearer. I have so far, seen one review from the directorate from Bruce Davie (thanks). I can post my notes to the directorate to restore synchronisation and see if others have more to add, if this helps. 2) I did make a list of questions that I'd like the directorate to help answer (David Harrington also posted a list). Answers to well-chosen questions would be extremely helpful in deciding whether to progress a draft. I would be happy to attempt to merge the list of questions and repost them - checking first with our ADs. 3) I didn't see much discussion on RSVP on the list in the last period, nor substantive "improvements" in the drafts - I can see this may mostly easily follow (1,2) above. 4) If the directorate/WG would like, it is possible we could formulate a more formal set of requirements for progression of an I-D along the lines you hint at below. You should not be surprised that I'd generally agree with what you say: 5 reviews would be great, promises that reviews would be provided (and NiT lists) to the WG and at WGLC would also seem very helpful. To me, I don't think this means you need to prove the spec is implementable/interoperable when it is standardised (as I recall, SCTP-advocates said they liked this approach, and that worked for them, which I liked). I'd weight heavily any interop experience and would attach value customer/service provider reviews and requirements. But personally, I'd recommend another go at (1,2,3) before we reach this stage (4) - the results of a formal process are of course easier to see and to appeal should you need, they are however likely to be binding and inflexible. James/directorate do let me know your thoughts and we can move forward. Gorry On 01/11/2010 23:58, James M. Polk wrote: > Bruce > > Thanks for responding so quickly.
