Re: Compendium of "red flags"



is there a relationship between a collection of red flags and RFC 3426 - "General Architectural and Policy Considerations"?

One advantage the id-nits document has is that it is far shorter than the average RFC...

These are things that if present in a draft tend to be "red flags" --
items that are often of questionable technical merit, and will tend to
draw scrutiny.

That doesn't mean that such items can never be included -- just that the
WG should be prepared to make a persuasive argument for them.

It might make sense to group the "red flags" by Area -- Transport,
Security, Routing, etc. so that we can make sure to have come up with a
"well rounded" set of issues.

Do people think that such a document would be valuable? How many "red
flags" might be reasonable to discuss in such a document? 10? 25?
