"BCP" and RFC 2119 keywords



A couple of other items from the framework that need discssion:

One:

00>   BCP [XXX Discuss @ Working Group]
00>
00>      Should we work on refining the definitions of "Current" and
00>      "Practice" ?  Does "current" mean that it's widely implemented,
00>      that at least one vendor implements, other ???   Does "Practice"
00>      mean "requirement".   See [RFC2026].


Two:

In what sense can these requirements use:

00>
00>   RFC 2119 Keywords [XXX Discuss @ Working Group]
00>
00>      The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL
00>      NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL"
00>      in this document are to be interpreted as described in  [RFC2119].

This probably depends on the outcome of the requirement as policy vs
policy as mechanism discussion.
