Re: I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-v6ops-nap-06.txt




Hi David,

Yes, the reasons for the title change were explained to me. I don't fully understand why the IESG had a blocking problem with the original title, but I agree with the decision to change the title, if that was necessary to publish the document.

In general, it is hard for me to see how the IESG could have blocking problems with a document that could be addressed by purely editorial changes... So, I'd prefer to see all discuss resolutions sent to the WG mailing list. However, I'm reasonably happy with the results in this case, so I see no reason for further discussion.

Margaret,

I believe you have received sufficient explanation from the authors
regarding these changes.

As far as me concerned, I believe they were mostly editorial. At the
same time, I agree that there were a few more changes than what I like
to see happening during IESG review and there were a few quite close
to being non-editorial. We (=me and workinggroup chairs) made the
judgment call that they did not have to go back to the working group
due to their editorial character and in the interest of getting
closure on this document. However, as with all cases where one has to
decide whether something is 'editorial but close to not being editorial',
different people might reach somewhat different conclusions. I hope
that you can see how we came to this judgment call however.

I hope this helps,

David Kessens

Hi All,

I would like to understand why the title of this document was changed
at the last minute.  I also have at least a minor objection to the
new title, particularly to what it means by the word "protection".

The word "protection" in the original title referred to protecting
the end-to-end Internet architecture (the network architecture) from
NAT.  In other words, we could use certain facilities in IPv6 instead
of NAT as a way to protect the end-to-end nature of IPv6 networks.

What does the word protection mean now, though?  That the facilities
in this document protect the local network?  From what?
