The IESG has received a request from the Global Routing Operations WG (grow) to consider the following document: - 'IRR & Routing Policy Configuration Considerations' <draft-ietf-grow-irr-routing-policy-considerations-05.txt> as Informational RFC 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 2014-12-01. 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 purpose of this document is to catalog past issues influencing the efficacy of Internet Routing Registries (IRR) for inter-domain routing policy specification and application in the global routing system over the past two decades. Additionally, it provides a discussion regarding which of these issues are still problematic in practice, and which are simply artifacts that are no longer applicable but continue to stifle inter-provider policy-based filtering adoption and IRR utility to this day. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-grow-irr-routing-policy-considerations/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-grow-irr-routing-policy-considerations/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
