Hi,

These drafts are intended for discussion on the MOQ ("Media Over QUIC'') non-WG mailing list, and (if I understand the guidance I've gotten from the TSV and ART ADs correctly) are actually out of scope for the QUIC working group.

IIRC, when I was a QUIC co-chair, I manually tweaked the pattern for the QUIC WG in the datatracker settings, because people were submitting QUIC-related I-Ds that were not showing up on our datatracker page and we hence didn't learn about until (sometimes much) later.

Since I'm not a co-chair anymore, I don't have access to the "manage document list" button anymore, so I can't verify this.

Thanks,
Lars
