The IESG has received a request from the WWW Distributed Authoring and Versioning WG (webdav) to consider the following document: - 'HTTP Extensions for Distributed Authoring - WebDAV ' <draft-ietf-webdav-rfc2518bis-17.txt> as a Proposed Standard While the WEBDAV working group was originally chartered to produce a draft standard update to RFC 2518, this documented is being targeted as a replacement Proposed Standard because of a number of substantive changes to the original semantics. These are summarized in Appendix F, but a full review of the document is required to see the entire scope. Because of the low level of energy in the group, the IESG does not anticipate receiving a Draft Standard candidate from the group as a successor to this document. A key question for reviewers is whether this document is substantially better than RFC 2518 and should replace it. 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 2007-01-21. 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.
