Hi! Could you please clarify the outcome you are seeking? The provided link is to a DISCUSS position I took several years ago. Since then, the SEC ADs have initiated discussions on this topic. The last being at IETF 121's SAAG meeting -- https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/121/materials/slides-121-saag-chair-slides-00.

Hi Roman, Please see https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/dnsop/jO3BxYMD79LxzCs7Sc_ihO0h_uk/ I did not find anything unreasonable in the 2022 discussion. I am not keen on DISCUSSes being viewed as "standards process" policy as the "standards process" community might end having to subscribe to an all-DISCUSS feed to track down what's policy. There has been discussions in several venues about incorporating national standards in IETF Stream specifications for over a year or more. Some of those venues are for IETF activities and some of them are for non-IETF activities. There were times when the discussions were quite spirited. One alternative is to have some steering to see whether the various opinions could be turned into a policy or not. Another alternative is to do nothing. I have not given much though to whether there were other alternatives. Regards, S. Moonesamy
