This is probably an unsatisfactory way to leave things. We have no solution, but I think there is agreement that IETF IPR documents need to be archived and preserved despite the demonstrated unreliability of vendors and the ISOC to preserve these documents. I think a solution is a systematic effort to mirror and preserve every document on the IETF TOOLS website needs to be undertaken in such a way that the administrators of the IETF TOOLS website can't destroy documents, even with IESG approval. I think an separate incorporated, responsible organization should take the responsibility for maintaining these documents. I /could/ propose to the LPF to take this on, but would need volunteers to do the work--the LPF at present cannot fund the work--it might (after approval) be able to preserve the records. But a new organization may needed for this specific purpose. But before we get too deep into the solution, I think that this subject and its solution is very quickly going to be beyond the scope of the TLS Working Group, but is apparently of interest to many TLS WG members. Of course, despite an interest by TLS WG members, the TLS Working Group also can't really recharter itself to compensate for the unreliability of another part of the IETF--sort of absurd. So it seems this discussion should be moved somewhere else; perhaps ietf-honest@lists.iadl.org or ipr-wg-honest@lists.iadl.org. So, I ask the TLS Chairs and other TLS WG members for suggestions on how to proceed. --Dean On Fri, 7 Aug 2009, Dean Anderson wrote: > The IETF has previously demonstrated itself to be unreliable and > untrustworthy with respect to preserving IPR disclosures.
