RE: Request to Publish ISATAP

Hi Jim,


[...] I
do not support your mail stating Fred wanted to go to standards track
but only experimental.

I'm not sure what you mean...  In the only request for publication that
I have seen, Fred explicitly requested standards track publications, and
indicated that the document should obsolete part of RFC 2893.  See his
message attached below.


ISATAP is being deployed in the v6 test beds currently and lets get all
to do the latest experimental RFC and see what develops.

Unfortunately, the v6ops WG is not chartered to publish ISATAP as
an experimental RFC.  However, I have sent Fred instructions on
how to ask the RFC editor to publish his individual submission as
an experimental RFC.

Subject: Plea to ADs to sponsor isatap-07 for standards track
Date: Fri, 13 Dec 2002 21:32:48 -0800 (PST)

To the Operations & Management, and Internet Area Directors,

Today (12/13/02), 'draft-ietf-ngtrans-isatap-07.txt' was
submitted to the Internet Draft registrar. The document is
available for immediate perusal at:


   http://www.geocities.com/osprey67/isatap-07.txt


In the spirit of Harald Alvestrand's 11/19/02 message to v6ops entitled
"On NGTRANS, transition mechanisms and consortia", I am issuing a plea
to the ADs to sponsor this document for standards track based on the
obvious merit that it obsoletes the automatic tunneling mechanisms
specified in RFC 2893.


I look forward to receiving your feedback and guidance
in this matter,


Sincerely,


Fred L. Templin
