John,
I acknowledge receipt of this appeal. It is not one I can
deal with myself, so it will be examined by the IESG as a
whole,
as specified in RFC 2026 section 6.5.2 paragraph 2. As it is
a complex matter, I cannot yet estimate the time needed.
Regards
Brian
Brian,
Thank you. May I, and the community, assume that the
Protocol Action notice, and the instructions to the RFC
Editor to publish the document as a standards-track RFC,
will be suspended while the appeal is active?
regards,
john
John, I don't see any text in RFC 2026 that gives an appeal
suspensive
effect. However, as a matter of common sense, I have asked the
Secretariat to request the RFC Editor to suspend RFC
publication.
I don't see that text either. I suspect it was omitted because
of the possibility of denial of service attacks on getting
standards out (Scott Bradner, a comment on this might be
helpful). But, because publication of this with an implied
recommendation to implement would make any subsequent action on
an appeal essentially moot, your common sense solution is
appreciated.
john
