The OSPF document progressed well. The decision was made to normatively reference the IDR document for some codepoints, mostly because the IDR document was pre-dating. But then IDR document did not progress that fast and hence the OSPF document is in RFC editor queue waiting for the normative reference (for 538 days i.e. 1,5 years and counting). > https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-isis-encapsulation-cap/ shows > expired in October 2017, The OSPF document had been significantly updated/rewritten toward the end which required some significant work. Since there were less traction with the IS-IS counterpart, to be honest I did not feel motivated to do the equivalent work for the IS-IS draft. If there is an interest for the IS-IS draft, we can revive and update it. OTOH, I'd rather avoid doing the work just to see the WG not progressing it to IESG during last call I assume (1) that your interest is coming from the IESG review on draft-ietf-mpls-sr-over-ip. draft-ietf-mpls-sr-over-ip is built over the IGP use case and hence relies on IGP advertising the encapsulation capability. Hence the normative reference, hence the fear the document would stay in the RFC editor queue for some time/ever. I think that this process question is mostly for the IESG. Personally I feel that a pragmatic approach would be to keep OSPF as a normative reference and downgrade IS-IS as informative. That may seem like a strange difference of treatment but the alternative is likely to just "silently" remove the IS-IS reference which would be an even bigger different of treatment. Regards, Bruno (1) Actually, your PS made it clear. PS: > Any clues? Thanks for not asking for the solution. That makes me feel more useful, for the same amount of work ;-) -----Original Message----- From: Lsr [mailto:lsr-boun...@ietf.org] On Behalf Of Adrian Farrel Sent: Saturday, April 13, 2019 5:59 PM To: lsr@ietf.org Subject: [Lsr] Status of draft-ietf-isis-encapsulation-cap Hi, Any clues? https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-isis-encapsulation-cap/ shows expired in October 2017, so I guess that is good and dead. On the other hand, https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ospf-encapsulation-cap/ found its way onto the RFC Editor Queue at around the same date and has languished there ever since. Did the ISIS work get replaced by some other draft without the "replaced by" link being set up? Was it deemed unnecessary in ISIS?
