The IESG has received a request from the Secure Inter-Domain Routing WG (sidr) to consider the following document: - 'A Publication Protocol for the Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI)' <draft-ietf-sidr-publication-09.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2017-01-06. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document defines a protocol for publishing Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) objects. Even though the RPKI will have many participants issuing certificates and creating other objects, it is operationally useful to consolidate the publication of those objects. This document provides the protocol for doing so. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-sidr-publication/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-sidr-publication/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
