Subject: Consideration of draft-lior-radius-attribute-type-extension-02.txt

The RADEXT WG has a charter deliverable for extensions to the RADIUS attribute 
space. The apparent consensus in the WG is to solve a very simple set of 
problems, including the pending exhaustion of the standard RADIUS attribute 
space, a consistent mechanism for application layer fragmentation and reassembly 
for Diameter interoperability, and a consistent mechanism for grouping of 
attributes for data structuring, also for Diameter interoperability. 

The structure of the extended attribute format currently under consideration 
may require changes in various RADIUS extensions drafts in RADEXT and 
other working groups. This assumes that at least some of these documents 
will ultimately use the RADIUS extended attribute allocations. Given the
potential widespread impact of attribute extension, the RADEXT WG Chairs 
are requesting that the RADEXT WG and all other affected WGs please review 
the following document: 
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-lior-radius-attribute-type-extension-02.txt
 
This is the third (and last) review request relating to this document.  
On December 5, 2006 a call for review of the RADIUS extended attribute document was 
issued to the RADEXT WG:  http://ops.ietf.org/lists/radiusext/2006/msg01002.html

Unfortunately, no review comments were received relating to this document.  Since the call 
for review occurred during the holiday the call for review as reissued on March 20, 2007:
http://ops.ietf.org/lists/radiusext/2007/msg00161.html
 
This request did not garner much response either, so the call for review is being
reissued one last time, in order to gauge whether there is sufficient interest in this work item. 
 
Please reply to this message indicating whether you believe the document
should be adopted as a RADEXT WG work item.  You need not have any comments
on the document in order to respond affirmatively;  however, if you do not believe
the document should be adopted, it would be helpful to explain why not.  
 
Please send comments to the RADEXT WG mailing list (radiusext@ops.ietf.org), using the
RADEXT Issue Tracker template, which can be found at:
http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/RADEXT/
 
This Request for Review will last until July 22, 2007.
