Consensus Call Summary: Changes to Extended Attributes Document



On Wednesday, May 7, a Consensus call was issued to the WG mailing list, in order to confirm acceptance of the consensus call done at IETF 71, with respect to the changes made in the Extended Attributes Document version -01.
 
That Consensus call has now concluded.  Based on the minimal mailing list response (1 response, in favor of the IETF 71 consensus), the consensus taken at IETF 71 is judged to be AFFIRMED. 
 
That is:
 
1. The change to the Ext-Type field (2 octets rather than 1) is APPROVED. 
2. The change to the RADIUS Extended Attribute format in (applied to existing standard RADIUS attributes,  not just extended ones) is REJECTED.
