Re: Progressing I-Ds Immediately Before Meetings

Soooo,

How come I-Ds don't expire after publication has been requested? Could this be a field in the data base that could be accessed to allow continued submission of revisions regardless of cut-off dates?

Well, if it is too hard or needs many hours of volunteer time, the answer is obvious.

Adrian:

This has been discussed many times, and there is no easy way for the Secretariat to distinguish these document from others. With the on-line Internet-Draft Submission Tool (IDST), it might be possible to search the database for such documents and let them through. However, we're trying to get the existing functionality working first. Frankly, we'd need a volunteer to write the code for this to be done anytime soon.

Hi,

The cut-off period before IETF meetings has (IMHO) some value to help people read an digest stable documents that will be discussed face-to-face.

However, some I-Ds are beyond WG last call and are going through other review cycles. Why should updates to these be barred?

For example, I have an I-D that has just completed IESG review. The updates are relatively simple and I would like to submit them and get the IESG to clear their Discusses. Apparently I cannot do this until July 27th. can anyone see a reason why this should be the case?

Cheers,
Adrian
