I don't think there's a universal answer here, and what happens would be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. I could imagine some documents that are controversial in the IETF and fail to gather consensus but describe protocols that do not harm the Internet and do not try to modify or usurp IETF protcols; the ISE is a fine venue for such documents. On the other hand, if the failure to attain IETF consensus was due to attempting to change the normative behavior of an existing IETF specification, then an attempt to publish via the ISE would receive a conflict-review response that notes the conflict with IETF work and indicates the harm of publishing the document anyway. That said, as is well-covered in this thread, the IESG conflict-review response is just a recommendation as far as the ISE is concerned, and the ISE will act wholly independently in deciding whether or not to publish. -Ben -- last-call mailing list last-call@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/last-call
