The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Rules for NFSv4 Extensions and Minor Versions' (draft-ietf-nfsv4-versioning-11.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Network File System Version 4 Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Mirja Kühlewind and Spencer Dawkins. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-nfsv4-versioning/ Technical Summary This document describes the rules relating to the extension of the NFSv4 family of protocols. It covers the creation of minor versions, the addition of optional features to existing minor versions, and the correction of flaws in features already published as Proposed Standards. The rules relating to the construction of minor versions and the interaction of minor version implementations that appear in this document supersede the minor versioning rules in RFC 5661 and other RFCs defining minor versions. Working Group Summary The working group has been supportive of this work with little to no contention over the approach and resultant content. In fact, as a demonstration of support, there are two I-Ds that are being submitted along side this I-D that use the minor version feature mechanism described within. Document Quality The quality of this document is high and is ready to move forward. It has received good review within the working group and the author is very familiar with the material and the style of the group. As noted above, two other documents that use this versioning technique are already in the publication process, so the working group accepts this technique as a basis for future work.
