Dear all,

I am sorry for this really late reply. Just got my mail-out-sending authority 
back.

Thanks to Ines for recognizing my historical contributions.

I am okay with the suggested changes from the editors. I approve this RFC for 
publication.

My sincere thanks to the RFC team for their effort in publishing this draft.

Remy

主题: Re: AUTH48: RFC-to-be 9854 <draft-ietf-roll-aodv-rpl-20> for your review


Dear all,

Based on the history, Bing (Remy) Liu joined version 03 of this IETF draft in 
2018. We are not familiar with his specific contributions from 2018 up to the 
latest versions of the document (2025). We received feedback from Liu on the 
IPR topic on 30 May 2023, during the year of the first IESG submission (draft 
version 18). After that, the draft was improved based on reviewers’ comments, 
but the main idea had already been established in the first IESG submission, 
during which we understand Liu was active.

Therefore, we would go with option 3 (“A stream manager can approve the 
document in place of the unavailable author”). However, we would like all the 
authors to discuss this among themselves and provide us with a single, unified 
answer (so far, we have option 2 and option 3 from different authors).

Thus, please, Charlie, Anand, and Satish, let us know your unified answer by 21 
October.

Thank you very much in advance,

Ines and Aris

appropriate in this case of this document?

Thanks,

Per the FAQ (https://www.rfc-editor.org/faq/#missingauthor), we recommend one 
of the following paths forward:

1. The author can be removed as an author and moved to the Acknowledgements 
section.
2. The author can be removed as an author and moved to the Contributors section.
3. A stream manager can approve the document in place of the unavailable author.
(See the IESG Statement on AUTH48 State.)

Option 3 is typically used in instances where the missing author made 
significant contributions to the document, so
the other authors are not comfortable removing the individual from the author 
list.

Please review and let us know how you’d prefer to proceed. If you have an 
alternative solution, please feel free to let us know.

Thank you,
