Seven individuals (approximate) submitted comments during the Last
Call. That's not much in terms of end-to-end read of the draft.
So, I am left with a few questions:
- What is the similar forcing function if we use a wiki?
- Will the number of people that can make updates eliminate the need
for such a forcing function?
- Who designates the editor-in-chief of the wiki?
HTTPbis has a good Wiki due to the efforts of two persons. The rest
of the IETF, excluding the IESG, do not believe that it is worth the
effort updating a Wiki. Instead of discussing the above questions it
is easier to create an Wiki page and leave it to anyone with a tools
login who cares to update it.
