I didn't intend to make my comment as a blocking issue for the last
call, but just to be clear: The revised section 4.5.2 of rev 07 looks
good to me.

I have nothing to say about the IESG case here, but why this rule for
the IAB?  This is a new invention, because the IAB chair's _ex
officio_ position on the IAOC comes by virtue of being IAB chair, and
that appointment is for no more than one year-cycle (i.e. Spring
meeting to Spring meeting -- this year it'll turn out slightly longer
than one year).  For all I know, the IAB will replace me in April with
someone else.  (Indeed, some days I think that, were they sane, they'd
replace me that afternoon!  That'd be less than a year.)

But you're making it greater than it is now.

    This section defines a service extension to the Mail Submission
    Protocol [RFC6409] which can be used by an authenticated, authorized
    client to query an SMTP server on port 25 for information about an
    email address.  This is intended only as a workaround for port 25
    blocking, so the extension is minimally tailored for that purpose.

So if my ISP is blocking port 25, I am forced to ask my ISP if the
remote party could accept encrypted email and to which key?

It is not "end to end" encryption, if the ISP can change the outcome.

So again, the above draft does not provide a workable solution for
the openpgpkey draft.

[ That's only if your ISP is your submission server, in which case
they're also likely operating the zone that would public your
public keys, and you're likely vulnerable to a variety of attacks
via that ISP.  Since faking the keys of remote parties is likely
tamper-evident, and such faking can also happen by who-ever is
publishing the zone data on the other end, I think this is a
reasonable architecture, but we digress... ]

The addrquery draft is not under discussion here, so perhaps I
should not even have said that much.  Exploring additional
approaches seems reasonable.

There's what's written down and then there's what actually happens.
According to the IAB history page, no IAB chair so far has served less
than 2 years as chair so I'm not all that worried about your scenario.
And there's a lot of pressure to have some stability in the IAB chair's
position, which translates into similar stability in the IAOC IAB
position.  If you want to change who serves on the IAOC from the IAB,
then we need to have a rule with respect to that appointment that gives
us a similar result to what's already been happening.   E.g. someone
from the IAB on the IAOC who will be around for ideally for a few years.

You make that sound like its a bad thing?

Seriously though, as I noted above, I'm not really making it greater -
I'm just trying to come up with an approach that preserves the current
*actual* stability.

Many thanks for your reviews, Russ.

I have looked at the document as well, looked up the reference, and agree with Russ? comment that there is something missing. I would have wanted to talk about this issue wrt this document on tonight?s IESG telechat, but Stephen Farrell has already raised this point. I am interested in the matter being resolved, however.

Also, Gustavo, did you get a chance to look at Russ? editorial comments? Those seem worthwhile to be addressed as well.

Thanks,

Jari

I found the rfc is even worse.

The most important thing the rfc must have stated (it
does not, of course) is:

        (SRC1, DST1, flow_ID1)

of a stateful flow MUST be unique (not used by packets
not belonging to the flow) within the Internet,
which can be guaranteed only by an end (source or
destination), which is a straight forward manifestation
of the end to end argument.

But, the rfc allow routers (firewalls) change flow IDs to
nonzero value.

So, if a router changes flow ID of (SRC1, DST1, flow_ID2),
from flow_ID2 to flow_ID3, then, there is a possibility
that flow_ID1==flow_ID3, which is fatal for the stateful
flow, if the modified packets are merged to the stateful
flow (certain protection against merging possible but
not robust against route changes).

Of course, section 6.1 of the rfc on covert channels is
abstract nonsense, because covert channels may be created
in various ways to carry information, for example, with
extension headers (fragmentation boundaries, for example,
can be arbitrary), which means firewalls should reject
packets with extension headers.
