Re: Proposed IESG statement on draft-malis-sonet-ces-mpls-05.txt



these things will be archived publicly, without that much context to them..... I think we might want to add some notes to reproduce what we have done and think about it, even though this will be "boilerplate" after a while....

The IESG has consulted with the PWE3 WG <<<<chairs?>>>> about the relationship of this document with the work of the PWE3 working group.

The PWE3 WG moved beyond draft-malis-sonet-ces-mpls-05.txt as the base
for one of its chartered documents, draft-ietf-pwe3-sonet-01.txt.  The
WG's chartered draft contains much material meeting requirements
(security, congestion avoidance, IP IP support as well as MPLS) not
envisioned by draft-malis-sonet-ces-mpls-05.txt,  because of the WG
charter and the working group interoperabilty discussions going on.
Leaving aside the charter requirements, the documents have the same
subject matter.
Publication of draft-malis-sonet-ces-mpls-05 at this time would therefore constitute an end-run around the IETF process.

The IESG therefore finds it advisable that
draft-malis-sonet-ces-mpls-05.txt  not be published at this time.
Publication after the working group document is published, if the author so desires, would not present a problem.
