RE: review of draft-ietf-radext-ieee802-01.txt

Given the ongoing work on RADIUS Design Guidelines to encompass additional data types and foster greater compatibility with Diameter AVPs, and the charter of the DIME WG, it is not inconceivable to come up with a single "improved" filter
rule that would make RADIUS-Diameter attribute translation much easier.
It would, however, in all likelihood delay this work for many months.
It seems to me we have to decide which we value more highly: a [more]
unified data model between RADIUS and Diameter or timely delivery of the 802-related extensions in RADIUS.

I'm not sure we have to choose. We can split the document, removing the filter attributes and progressing the rest. From what I can see, there are no open issues relating to the VLAN/Priority attributes, so doing that could enable the VLAN/Priority document to be sent to the IESG
for review by IETF 65.

Unless we think that we can resolve the Diameter and Design Guidelines issues by the submission deadline for IETF 65, I don't see what other paths are available to completing this milestone in a timely way.
