ATM 
 UNI (ITU-T I.413), rather than to represent these as a span as in the

 Is the meaning of the various line types described elsewhere? If so, a
 statement to that effect with a reference would be helpful.
  
 We have used the same convention as RFC5921. However, there is no key
 there. I am not sure that a complete key would clarify the diagram as
the 
 same line type is used to represent multiple entities due to the limited
 umber of characters that are useful for ASCII drawing.
 
Ah, I agree it probably would be too much to add a complete key, and on
re-reading, I see most of the lines are sufficiently labeled. But I am
still confused by a few of them. For example, in under the UNI column, I
see both a single and double dashed (equal signs) line under the label of
Client Traffic Flows. Should I assume those to just be two arbitrary
flows where the line type just helps me follow a particular flow, or are
they somehow different classes of flows? 

MB They are just flows belonging to arbitrary transport service
instances, and helps the reader to follow the path of the flow.
 
On the right side of the same diagram, I see 3 Transport Paths with an
outer set of arrows, and the lower two having another arrow between.
Should the outer arrows be interpreted as a channel over which client
traffic flows? 

MB The outer arrows are supposed to look like two sides of a tunnel (the
transport path) other which the transport service instance (TSI) is
transported. 
 
  
  
 -- Figure 2: 
  
 I suggest expanding CP somewhere.
  
 CP is expanded in the terminology section.
 
So it is, right there at the top. (I could have sworn I did a text search
for that--looks like the search option in the iPad tool I use for
reviewing drafts is not reliable :-|)

I'll reproduce the notice for completeness:

  This document is subject to BCP 78 and the IETF Trust's Legal
   Provisions Relating to IETF Documents
   (http://trustee.ietf.org/license-info) in effect on the date of

   to this document.  Code Components extracted from this document must
   include Simplified BSD License text as described in Section 4.e of
   the Trust Legal Provisions and are provided without warranty as
   described in the Simplified BSD License.

I gather that an IETF Submission with the above notice allows the 
IETF to have change control on the work.



Generally, yes. There's nothing wrong is such discussion if there
appears to be a WG consensus to do so. You refer to this hypothetical
submission as a work, which is a technically correct copyright term,
but I believe you are thinking of it as a standards specification or a
part of or an amendment to such a specification. But it can just be
that the submitter wanted to use the draft format as a convenient way
to make a statement to the WG, presumably a statement relevant to what
the WG is doing. In such a case, the whole point would be
consideration and, if appropriate, discussion of that statement in the
WG.


I was thinking of it in terms of work, BCP 78 and BCP 79.  Thanks 
for providing a better perspective.



It depends. That's why there are different versions of the
boilerplate. If the submitter has denied the IETF permission to
produce derivative works, then it seems improper to attempt to adopt
that draft as a WG draft. That's because being a WG draft implies WG
change control. However, the ideas in the draft could be used in a WG
draft.

I generally reserve change control over non WG IDs because I have 
experienced people hijacking a draft, changing the principles 
entirely and adding their name.


Since there is an explicit allowance for that in the IPR regime, I 
don't see why this would be an issue.


Some people post drafts with the notice quoted above.  They have not 
given any thought to the explicit allowance and end up being 
unhappy when they are asked to give up control.  The first case (see 
my previous message) wasn't a pleasant situation.

That's how I understand the second paragraph here:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/bcp78#page-7


Yes.

For what it's worth, there was a case where changes to the SDO 
specification, which was not an IETF Submission, are only accepted 
from members of the SDO.  There is a parallel with the IETF here as 
Contributions require acceptance of the Note Well, i.e. changes are 
only accepted from IETF participants.



While the inclusion of the respective Copyright boilerplate by the
author in the the submission is technically sufficient,
I would consider it a courtesy to ask the original author for
consent anyway, especially if it is about a new I-D
(rather than an older RFC).


Agreed.

2011-01-20 Thread Murray S. Kucherawy
To be honest, I'm not even clear on what the issue is.

If an organization creates a BCP in its own context based on the experiences of 
its constituents, and then the IETF uses that material to inform its own BCP on 
the same subject, and reasonable permission and attribution are given, what 
constitutes change control?  The IETF controls its version, and the other 
organization controls its own.

For example, OpenBSD was forked from NetBSD.  Who now has change control?  Does 
that even mean anything?

Apart from copyright matters, I think the only problem arises when there's 
debate over whose version is the official one.  But that's a matter of the 
perception that exists outside of the two organizations.  Otherwise, aren't 
they merely two perspectives on the same subject matter, and that's that?

2011-01-20 Thread Murray S. Kucherawy
The only thing I can dream up (without an example) is that the submitting 
organization's version of something and the IETF's version end up diverging, 
and the submitting organization doesn't like that.  To wit, the submitting 
organization wanted the added credibility of the RFC label without any 
substantive changes to the material.  But that strikes me as a failure of due 
diligence more than anything.

Caveat emptor.

Re: Last Call: draft-holsten-about-uri-scheme-06.txt (The 'about' URI scheme) to Proposed Standard

2011-01-20 Thread Ted Hardie
I agree with SM's concern that the mechanism by which this is
extended is underspecified.  The draft contains one reserved
token, blank, and a set of examples which make clear that there
is an unwritten set of known and unknown tokens which populate the segment
portion of the given ABNF.  Providing a registry for those tokens,
possibly with simple reserved status if no specification exists, might
help.  Standardizing a method for querying what about: tokens are
available in a specific context might as well (about:about, for example,
or about:?about).

But the reality is that the behavior resulting from these URIs is totally
non-deterministic and varies from context to context.  In most contexts
outside of a browser location bar, they are meaningless. Inside that
context, the browser's definition seems to be definitive.  If the aim
is only to get about:blank fully specified, I'd suggest saying so outright,
and noting clearly that all other uses are context-dependent, with
returning about:blank recommended practice  for those unknown.

As a thought experiment, would the W3C counsel against the presence
of an about URI in an XML namespace?

Additionally, naming a change controller should generally be a bit more
precise than an organization name.  The W3C director or TAG seems
more appropriate than just W3C.

URL:http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6083.txt

This document describes the usage of the Datagram Transport Layer
Security (DTLS) protocol over the Stream Control Transmission
Protocol (SCTP).

DTLS over SCTP provides communications privacy for applications that
use SCTP as their transport protocol and allows client/server
applications to communicate in a way that is designed to prevent
eavesdropping and detect tampering or message forgery.

Applications using DTLS over SCTP can use almost all transport
features provided by SCTP and its extensions.  [STANDARDS-TRACK]

This document is a product of the Transport Area Working Group Working Group of 
the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track
protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Internet
Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and
status of this protocol.  Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
