Isn't this just adding an analogous extension that already exists in RFC7794?
I don't think we need to do a lot of convincing at this point. I agree with Les, if you want to talk about use cases (especially ones that are controversial!) then the correct place for that is in a new informative draft. Otherwise, especially if the cases are controversial, this can be seen as doing an "end-run" to avoid the debate b/c people want the extension, but maybe don't agree with your use case. Legislators do this sometimes adding things they want personally to popular bills, that other people may not want, but since people want the main bill they vote for it anyway, in the US it's called "adding pork" or "pork barrel politics". :) Thanks, Chris. > On Oct 16, 2020, at 10:37 AM, 王爱俊 <wangai...@tsinghua.org.cn> wrote: > > > Hi, Chris: > Originally, the appendix part is within the document, which is the start > point/main motivation to extend the prefix origin. > There may exists other usages of this information.
