The IESG has no problem with the publication of 'Using Self-Delimiting Numeric Values in Protocols' <draft-irtf-dtnrg-sdnv-08.txt> as an Informational RFC. The IESG would also like the IRSG to review the comments in the datatracker (http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-irtf-dtnrg-sdnv/) related to this document and determine whether or not they merit incorporation into the document. Comments may exist in both the ballot and the comment log. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-irtf-dtnrg-sdnv/ The process for such documents is described at http://www.rfc-editor.org/indsubs.html Thank you, The IESG Secretary Technical Summary Self-Delimiting Numeric Values (SDNVs) have recently been introduced as a field type in proposed Delay-Tolerant Networking protocols. SDNVs encode an arbitrary-length non-negative integer or arbitrary- length bit-string with minimum overhead. They are intended to provide protocol flexibility without sacrificing economy, and to assist in future-proofing protocols under development. This document describes formats and algorithms for SDNV encoding and decoding, along with notes on implementation and usage. This document is a product of the Delay Tolerant Networking Research Group and has been reviewed by that group. No objections to its publication as an RFC were raised. Working Group Summary This document is a product of the dtn Research Group of the IRTF. Document Quality This document is a research publication of the IRTF. Personnel Ralph Droms <rdroms.ietf@gmail.com> is the responsible Area Director. IESG Note The IESG has not found any reason to prevent the publication of this document. 1. The IESG has concluded that there is no conflict between this document and IETF work. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
