It became clear to me during a recent IESG document review that more than what is specified in RFC 3967 is needed. The approach described in this document seems to meet that need. It strikes a sensible balance between the need to recognize downrefs and the need to limit their impact on document progression. -Scott- _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
