Folks, We'd like to run a proof-of-concept version of the Senior Internet Reviewer (SIR) activity, prior to obtaining formal IETF "blessing" for it. The proposal is discussed in: <http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-carpenter-solution-sirs-00.txt> It recruits experienced IETF participants to provide additional and iterative review to working group efforts. The IETF community assigns the status of SIR, but the working group recruits individual SIRs to do reviews. An experimental version of the service is at: <http://graybeards.net/sirs> Anyone who is qualified to be a SIR, according to the objective "bootstrapping" criteria in the proposal, should contact me to get listed on the SIRS web page. The objective are: * all current IAB members * all former IAB and IESG members, and former WG Chairs, who the Secretariat can contact and who are willing to serve * all current MIB Doctors * all members of existing IETF Directorates * all authors of at least three RFCs, who the Secretariat can contact and who are willing to serve Thanks. d/ ps. Suggestions for modifications to the proposal are still eagerly sought. -- Dave Crocker <mailto:dcrocker@brandenburg.com> Brandenburg InternetWorking <http://www.brandenburg.com> Sunnyvale, CA USA <tel:+1.408.246.8253>, <fax:+1.866.358.5301>
