The IESG has received a request from the Network File System Version 4 WG (nfsv4) to consider the following document: - 'Network File System (NFS) Version 4 Protocol' <draft-ietf-nfsv4-rfc3530bis-25.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 2013-04-16. 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 The Network File System (NFS) version 4 is a distributed filesystem protocol which owes heritage to NFS protocol version 2, RFC 1094, and version 3, RFC 1813. Unlike earlier versions, the NFS version 4 protocol supports traditional file access while integrating support for file locking and the mount protocol. In addition, support for strong security (and its negotiation), compound operations, client caching, and internationalization have been added. Of course, attention has been applied to making NFS version 4 operate well in an Internet environment. This document, together with the companion XDR description document, RFCNFSv4XDR, obsoletes RFC 3530 as the definition of the NFS version 4 protocol. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-nfsv4-rfc3530bis/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-nfsv4-rfc3530bis/ballot/ The following IPR Declarations may be related to this I-D: http://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/1960/
