The original author of RFC1345 has his email address in the document. Other people who were involved seem to be listed in the Acknowledgements. If you recognize any of their names in postings to this list I'd suggest they might be fair game for further queries :) For the guidelines on doing a new draft, please read http://www.ietf.org/ietf/1id-guidelines.html. Another place you might start discussion of similar work is on the Apps Discuss list -- https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss I suggest that list because although the IETF hasn't done anything quite like standards for keyboard entry before, at least the Apps area seems like the closest layer. There are also i18n experts (although Randy and Doug did already reply to this thread). If the IETF were to consider something like RFC1345 today, there would be a lot of questions like - whether a registry would be more appropriate than a static document, after all it's a set of fields that might be extended, - how one would determine whether any two implementations were interoperable, or if that's a sensible concept in this context - whether another standards organization wouldn't be a better place for detailed char set mappings For all I know those conversations occurred with RFC1345, but we'd still have them again :) thanks Lisa Dusseault |
