If the author(s) don't include a "discuss this here" section, then they're inviting direct comments, and maybe that's what they prefer. If not, they will quickly learn to either find or create a forum, even if that's just ietf@xxxxxxxx, and mention such in the draft. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
