RFC Editor and 2006 timeline

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The IAB and IAOC have put together the following proposed
plan for clarifying the RFC Editor function and running through
a contract review process this year.

The key pieces of this proposed process are:

	. getting agreement on a basic RFC Editor charter

	. completing TechSpec to describe requirements for
	  IETF technical specification publication

	. developing analogous components for independent
	  submissions, IRTF documents, etc.  (Not all yet on
	  the timeline).


Comments welcome.
