Subject: [rfc-i] comments on draft-rfc-editor-errata-process-00
Message-ID: <002a01c836b0$071611d0$df128182@Wylie>

Three comments on the draft/process:
 
1. Should we add a link to the errata on the
http://www.ietf.org/iesg/1rfc_index.txt page? This way if somebody does
download the index and do a search on it then it's pretty clear that there's
errata.

2. Likewise should we add a link on the WG pages?

3. I know RFCs never change, but with errata they kind of do - so should we
add a link/note in to the boilerplate either at the beginning or at the end
of the RFC.

I know this is operator error but I really had no idea there was errata
until about 6 months ago.

Subject: [rfc-i] Final Report on RFC Editor contract 2002 - 2007
Message-ID: <200712111851.KAA23703@gra.isi.edu>


ISI is currently under contract with ISOC as the result of a
competitive bidding process during 2006.  During the 5 years prior to
2007 (and until the current contract was in place on April 1, 2007 [How
appropriate is THAT? ;-)], the RFC Editor was funded by a sole-source
contract with ISOC.  This eaerlier contract was renewed several times
during the period January 2002 through March 2007, with modifications
to the SoW and budgets.

The sole-source contract included the requirement for a final report.
That report has now been delivered to the relevant IETF/ISOC
leadership, and its text is online on the RFC Editor web page.  See:
www.rfc-editor.org/RFCeditor.html.

Subject: [rfc-i] "Official Internet Protocol Standards" and STDs
Message-ID: <200712191800.KAA27109@gra.isi.edu>


Vis a vis the recent IETF discussion of the role of STDs for
recording Internet standards:

Since we were in the process of de-crufting the script that
produces the "Official Internet Protocol Standards" file
(www.rfc-editor.org/rfcxx00.html), we improved the display
of STDs to clearly show what has happened in wierd cases
like STD 10 (ex. RFC 821).
