Agenda: draft-paskin-doi-03.txt (with DNP attached)



Please add draft-paskin-doi-03.txt to the agenda, with the following
proposed DNP note:


This document proposes a top-level URI scheme, doi, and contains
details about the usage of this identifier in a community of use
centered on the International DOI Foundation. After receiving this
draft from the RFC Editor, the IESG requested that the URI be
reviewed by the team at uri-review@ietf.org to see if it fit within
the guidelines established by RFC 2717/BCP35. Though the authors
and reviewers have had a productive discussion of the draft,
the IESG has concluded that this draft does not meet the requirements
of RFC 2717, section 3.2.

The IESG notes, however, that the original intention of those crafting
RFC 2717 was to set up registration trees outside the IETF tree, in order to
enable registrations by those whose community of use lay largely outside the context
of IETF standards. After a long pause in the development of those registration
procedures, the responsible AD has asked Larry Masinter to take on editorship
of a proposed set of procedures for these registrations. The IESG encourages
the draft's authors to work with him on those guidelines and, when they
are complete, to register the doi scheme in the non-IETF tree that they will
set up.
