This is looking promising, thank to all responders.

I'll wait until Sunday night or Monday to see if there are any different opinions.

Agree with Joel -- we can delete them and move on.

Personally, I think we can delete both appendices. While having an historic record is important, the earlier RFC contains that for historic purposes. I do not think that it behooves the community to try to bring those two sections up to date, which is what would seem to be required if we want to keep them in the document.

Yours,

Joel

Hi,

We have just one thing remaining after working group last call…

Don raised some concerns about the Appendixes to this draft and this is an attempt to focus the questions and possibly drive answers.

Appendix A. Historic Overview

Should we delete or retain this Appendix?

If we retain it, should we include some text indicating that it is a subjective view? (If so, what text?)

If we retain it, should we regard it as "History before what is in the body of the text" or should we try to make the history continue towards the present by including pointers back into the body text? (If so, someone is going to need to do that work!)

If we retain it, should we look to fill any gaps between the end of the history documented in the Appendix and the start of the material in the body text?

Appendix B. Overview of Traffic Engineering Related Work in Other SDOs

Should we delete or retain this Appendix?

If we retain it, should it attempt to list out other (all?) SDOs that have done TE work? (If so, who will try to compile this list?)

I would really appreciate any thoughts on these points and, depending on your answers, some (promises of) text.

Thanks,

Adrian
