Mike,

Thanks for posting this document. As you say, it's probably
best to focus on big picture principles rather than details
With that in mind, there are several pieces of this that
do not sit well with me, as noted below.


RSE ACCOUNTABILITY
As I understand this document, the intent is to largely insulate the
RSE from external forces.

Specifically:

1. The RSEB (which nominally represents the RFC community) does not
seem to have any hiring and firing authority [0]

2. While this is a bit more unclear, the LLC does not seem to be
chartered to replace the RSE based on concerns about their
strategic choices. [1]

3. Section 4.3 says:

   While it is ultimately the LLC's decision, the RSE should be engaged
   via either a personal services contract or an employment contract for
   a given term.  Engagement as an at-will employee would not be
   appropriate for a senior-level resource with these strategic
   responsibilities and would not provide any measure of consistency and
   continuity over the RFC Series.

While I can certainly understand how this arrangement might be
appealing to prospective RSEs, I do not believe it provides an
appropriate level of accountability to the community. Specifically, I
believe it is necessary to have the ultimate authority for stratetic
decisions be vested in the community (in this case this would be the
RSEB, ignoring for the moment its composition), but that does not
appear to be the case here. This issue is exacerbated by the fact
that the RSE is themselves a member of the RSEB.

On the specific topic of the nature of the contract, ignoring the
specific question of at-will, it is quite common for senior level
executives (CEOs, etc.) to be simply replaced by the board, so I
don't think it follows that a senior-level resource with strategic
responsibilities should have high levels of security of employment.


THE IETF'S ROLE
This structure seems to cast the IETF in a fairly small role,
for instance making the ISE chair. I recognize that there are
differences of opinion in how much weight we should give
the non-IETF portions of the RFC series, but given that the
IETF is by far the largest customer of the RFC series, I
believe that any structure should be designed to ensure that
the IETF's needs are met. This structure does not seem to me
to do so.

-Ekr


[0] "Note: As the RSEB has no contractual relationship with the RSE, the
RSEB does not exercise any form of work direction over the RSE nor
does it have any role in evaluating the RSE's performance."

[1] "For avoidance of doubt: The LLC has no oversight or management role
with respect to the strategic development of the RFC Series.  The
funding of the RSE, RPC and other tasks within the RSO does not
expand the LLC's current administrative remit to oversight of the RFC
Series."

I think I've already commented on a different aspect of this and
am still trying to sort out how to explain what I think is an
even more basic problem, but...

The big advantage of Word and its ilk is that it is more or less
WYSIWYG.  Many of us who dislike Word dislike it because it
tries to infer what you want to see, sometimes gets that wrong,
but is unwilling to be overridden about it, at least in any
obvious way.  Vint has referred to some such systems as
"WYGIWYIG" (what you get is what you get).  And, because one is
editing both text and page layout at the same time, sometimes
going to a different format works well and sometimes it doesn't.
So-called generic markup systems, going back to GML and SGML,
are intended to take page layout and similar decisions out of
the hands of authors and move them to experts on those subjects
(plus or minus so-called style sheets, which are also things
that experts should probably be designing.  And, again,
switching styles in Word for different presentation arrangements
sometimes works... and sometimes doesn't, perhaps depending on
understanding them and their implications much more deeply than
seems typical of Word users.

And, while Word can export something XML-ish (and, with some
versions, that is the default) that will never be as
satisfactory as true generic markup because, at best, it is
using more or less complicated, and more or less accurate,
heuristics to get from a presentation form (e.g., a string in
italics) to information about what it actually is (a book title?
a string in a different language that one wants to set of?  A
form of emphasis?  In the most general of cases, only the author
knows what was intended.  In that sense, the long-ago choice of
ASCII text was about stability by deciding on certain types of
layout (US-format pages, although some special decisions were
made to accommodate A4).  A decision to go with PDF/A is a
similar sort of decision -- very specific layout.  HTML does not
avoid forcing us into a box; it is just a different box and on
for which, maybe, more kinds of devices have been optimized and
more people have gotten used to the rough edges.   And, in an
ideal or even reasonable world, one does not try to author
documents in either.  When we decided we wanted to be able to
display output reasonably well on other types of devices --very
different ones-- then generic markup, with either
author-specified elements or some person iterating on element
definitions with the author, is a necessity [1].  And, of
course, it is possible to design editing tools that are far more
friendly to, e.g., XML with a particular schema than either
generic XML editing tools, my emacs/epsilon macros, or just
writing markup in an ordinary text editor.

For those who like Word (or anything similar), it seems
perfectly reasonable (if we are willing to incur the costs
which, so far, we've said we are) to use it to generate
plausible output files, hand those output files over to the RPC,
and have them convert those files to acceptable XML2RFC format,
with or without the aid of markdown and asking the author
questions if needed.  That is more or less what publishers who
accept typescript (or Word) have been doing since many of them
shifted to SGML three decades ago as part of the process leading
to page layout.  But let's be clear that is what we are doing
and talking about.  Otherwise, it a choice between discussing
how to find or make better tools for creating and editing the
specific XML2RFC schema or abandoning the idea of
multiple-format output. 

Finally, to predict part of the explanation I'm having trouble
putting together without a message longer than anyone will read,
I assume that everyone reading this knows all of the above
already, can discuss the tradeoffs between XML and other SGML
dialects for publications, has an in-depth understanding of the
difference between format and generic markup and the tradeoffs
involved, etc.

    best,
     john

[1] Markdown is a different way to get there, but with far more
knowledge of how to derive XML from RFC formats than is possibly
with a generic tool like Word)

Word has a very powerful stylesheet feature so you can define styles for 
semantic tags for titles of code or whatever, and they're visible to 
export tools.  At least 20 years ago the publisher wanted to put a CD in 
one of my books which had all of the contents and screen shots as HTML 
pages.  The text was all written in Word, a file per chapter, so I 
exported the Word files as RTF (this was back when Word's native format 
was undocumented tokens), and wrote some perl scripts that read the RTF 
and turn it into HTML files with suitable links and tags and so forth. 
It worked because it was my own Word, edited by editors who understood 
that the style tags needed to be there and the figure links needed to be 
in a fixed format, but it was extremely fragile.

The problem with this approach is that very few Word users actually use 
styles beyond section headers to get the TOC and I doubt we can change 
that.

John,

Thanks.  That is consistent with what I was trying to say; the
details are appreciated.  Having tried to do some things with
RTF many years ago and trying unsuccessfully to adapt styles to
things I needed (yes, beyond a TOC) more recently, you have my
admiration as well.

    john

I can see how you might think that, but I wouldn't put it that way.   
Instead, its to make sure each participant in this process understands 
their authorities and responsibilities and to prevent the levels of 
unaccountability we currently have with respect to the RSOC and to a 
lesser extent the IAB.

Well, contrary to popular belief, neither the IAB nor the RSOC has ever 
had hiring or firing authority.  In the ISOC era, that rested with the 
HR department I believe.  In the LLC era it rests with the LLC .  What 
the IAB and RSOC did have was the ability to recommend or request the 
selection of a particular candidate by the hiring entity.  A good 
portion of the problem we encountered was them not understanding those 
limitations.   The LLC has indicated an intent to defer to the wishes of 
the IAB in this matter, but legally, the role still resides with the LLC.

With respect to hiring, in the "new" model, the RSEB can recommend RSE 
candidates to the LLC, but if the LLC isn't able to come to an agreement 
on terms with that candidate, there's nothing the RSEB can do to change 
that.  That again was no different than before.  The LLC - legally, but 
probably not ever going to happen practically - could actually hire 
whoever they wanted irrespective of any input from the RSEB, IAB, IESG etc.

The LLC decides how it decides, and this document doesn't try to force 
them into any given model.   Once the contract  between the LLC and the 
RSE is written, it controls a good part of those decisions.  I would 
expect any contract to support termination for malfeasance, or not doing 
the work contracted.   I would expect any contract lawyer to yell at any 
attempt where the LLC attempts to control the "how" of the work being done.

In any event, the LLC handles personnel and contract issues, and the  
RSEB is the one that approves the publication of the RSE's work  and 
never the twain shall meet.  I doubt that the RSEB is going to approve 
said documents so if the strategy espoused by the RSE is at odds with 
what the RSEB members believe is the correct path.  If the RSEB is 
mostly against the RSE time and again, and the members of the RSEB make 
those concerns known to the LLC, its unlikely that the LLC will extend 
the contract.   Legally, this is no different that the current model, 
but with a black box warning being made to the LLC and RSEB on the 
limits of their authorities.

1) Strategic decisions ARE vested in the community.  It takes at least  
5 members of the RSEB  (which may or may not include the RSE) to approve 
a new document that describes changes in strategy.  The RSEB represents 
the community.  If it isn't written down, it didn't happen.

2) How is the fact that the RSEB is one member of 8, 6 of which are 
appointed either by the Nomcom, or by the streams exacerbating any issue 
(which AFAICT doesn't actually exist)?

3) The IETF has more of a republic feel to it than a democracy. We 
select various folk and delegate authority to them.  We hope they do 
what we want, but more times than not they do what they need to do.   
The community has never had the ultimate authority for strategic 
decisions related to the RFC series - instead it's delegated to 
(actually wrong word - powers were claimed by) the IAB the right to 
select where standards were published.   When ISI got out of the RSE 
business, we put the "authority" into an appointed RSE (and later a 
hired RSE) who was required by the terms of their contract and the whole 
host of documents describing the relationship between the RSE and the 
community, to actually listen to what the community said, evaluate it 
with respect to what they knew about both the IETF and the needs of 
publication, and to synthesize  a solution that mostly met the needs of 
both. I don't expect that last part to change.

4) Continuity is important in this space - perhaps more so that you're 
willing to admit.  The model of an on-call consultant who sometimes 
comes in and answers questions does not support the idea of a dynamic 
and world-class publication system.  We can coast a while on the work 
that Heather and her predecessors have done, but I don't think we can do 
that for long and maintain the publication standards.

5) The RSE is accountable to their contract.  AFAICT the contracts in 
the past have been written to ensure the RSE pays attention to what the 
community says.   The community can yell at the RSE all it wants and the 
RSE will listen, but in the end, its the LLC that has to determine 
whether or not the RSE is fulfilling their contract.   You may not think 
of that as accountable to the community, but you seem to be implying 
that you want the RSE directly accountable to yourself in a way that's 
not legally possible.

*sigh* No.   Senior level executives may generally be replaced by the 
board, but there's a cost to doing so and that cost is written into the 
contract.  Absent the executive failing to meet goals agreed to in the 
contract, the board either has to honor the contract, pay a kill fee, or 
go to court (or in one case I'm aware of - massively accelerate stock 
vesting).    That said, contracts do support probationary periods and 
terminations for convenience - all depends.

*sheesh*  The RSEB contains 3 stream managers selected by the IAB, IESG 
and IRSG, an ISE selected by the IAB, 2 at large members selected by the 
Nomcom and 1 at large member selected by the ISOC.    Out of 8 members, 
6 of them are selected either directly or indirectly by the IETF 
community.   I fail to see why you think that the IETF is being give 
short-shrift here?

The RSEB is the body that signs off on documents that describe the RFC 
Series, its proceedures, publication process and evolution.   The RSE 
will in general be the author of those documents, but there is NOTHING 
preventing the RSEB from drafting its own documents, or asking for a 
third party to do so.   Those documents basically become the BCPs that 
control the RFC system.

Later, Mike

Hello Martin, Brian, others,

Sorry to be very late with a reply on a thread.

I can easily imagine that this could be made to work for an overall 
style guide that is updated once a year or so. But it doesn't work for 
for more day-to-day issues, which I understand come up quite regularly.

Regards,   Martin.

 From my perspective there is one aspect that makes Martin Thomsom's 
suggestion for using a WG to do the style guide almost workable, and 
several aspects that do not.

The good thing is that we do not update the style guide annually.

The first bad thing is that I have not seen a working group that can 
update a document even bi-annually.

The next problem that occurs to me is that a style guide is often a 
judgement call.  There is not a technical right answer.  But an answer 
is generally needed.  The IETF WG process is consistently very bad at 
that sort of decision.  Witness the mess for almost every process 
decision in the IETF.  And the WG process does not allow the chairs to 
simply declare a conclusion when there is not rough consensus.

Yes, in general we want the RFC series decisions to be responsive to the 
broad community rough consensus.  But we also need a mechanism that 
actually makes informed decisions to drive the publication process.

Yours,
Joel

That's where I believe that a nominated RFC Series Advisor comes in. See
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-carpenter-rfced-model-00#section-8
and in particular (emphasis added):

   Further, the RSA is expected to ensure that RSAWG consensus is well
   documented and communicated to the community, the LLC, and the REP.
   *This may include document authorship.*

   The RSA is expected to be a thought leader for improvements to the
   RFC Series, for developing vision and policy documents, and for
   *establishing community consensus for them.*

I would indeed expect the style guide to remain a living document,
as it is today. Given that style guide issues have often been
discussed on rfc-interest@rfc-editor.org (an open list) I don't
even see much of a change in practice here.

Agreed. But on the other hand, we say we don't want monarchs and presiden=

I agree with some of this and disagree with other parts:

1. Yes, I imagine that the LLC (and ISOC before it) could legally hire
anyone they wanted and give them any title they wanted. However, this
would not make them the RSE for the purposes of our process (as was
discussed in detail in IASA 2.0). Here is the relevant text from
6635:

   The RSE is appointed by the IAB, but formally hired by the IAOC.  The
   IAB delegates the direct oversight over the RSE to the RSOC, which it
   appoints.

2. The purpose of these documents is in part to memorialize our
understanding of the terms under which the LLC is expected to act.
So, while 6635 I think makes clear that the LLC ought to contract
with/hire either the person that the IAB/RSOC selects or nobody,
your document appears to change that. But perhaps I've misunderstood
you. Hence some questions about your intent:

- If the LLC ignored the RSEB's chosen candidate and selected
  their own, would they be able to act as the RSE for the
  purposes of this process, such as chairing the RSEB?

- If the RSEB wishes to replace the current RSE at the end
  of their contract, what mechanism do they use to do that
  and what impact does that have on the LLC (as in the
  first question)?

As noted above, this seems to me to be a material change from
the existing 6635 situation in which the LLC would not be expected
to independently determine the suitability of an RSE who the
RSOC had decided not to engage. Again, I'm speaking here of the
implications for our process, not what the LLC's legal rights
are.

But perhaps this is just a matter of me not understanding what
you have written down. Let's consider a concrete case:

The RSEB \setminus RSE wants to proceed in a certain strategic
direction (inscribing the RSEs on clay tablets say). They ask the RSE
to develop the plan to do so, but the RSE opposes it and so refuses to
do so in a timely fashion. What, if any, recourse does the RSEB have?

Sure, and that prevents the RSE from unilaterally doing bad things but
it does not prevent the RSE from effectively stalling good things they
don't agree with. See the example I gave above.

Indeed, we disagree on this point, but I don't think each of us
offering our unsupported assertions is going to get us very far, so
I'll refrain from arguing it at present. I will, however, note that
neither "dynamic" nor "world-class" are the words that come to mind
when I think of our present publication system.

That's what it says.  And you're correct that the RSE might be 
considered "illegitimate" if the LLC ignored the formal appointment and 
hired someone to do the work of the RSE, even without the actual title.  
But the LLC has the money, and as such has the veto power regardless of 
what the documents say. Appointing a non-IAB approved (or in my case 
non-RSEB recommended) RSE could end up with the LLC getting yelled at by 
the community, but it still doesn't change the reality of how the 
contracting business works.

The recourse here - as noted before - is that the RSEB could refuse to 
publish the (illegitimate) RSE's work.

That would be an interesting discussion.  In any event the person hired 
as RSE would be doing the work - the RSEB could either approve it or not 
for publication.  My guess is that all of that would work itself out 
either by the RSE being replaced, by the RSEB being replaced, or by the 
LLC being replaced - whichever made more sense to the community.

The RSEB and RSEB members may make any comments they want to the LLC.  
The LLC can assign those comments as much or as little weight as they 
feel appropriate.  That may result in the LLC asking the RSEB to set up 
a search, or for the LLC re-uping the RSE irrespective of the RSEBs 
desires.   This is pretty much how the IAB takes community comments on 
the ISE AFAICT.   The point is that the RSEB isn't there to manage the 
RSE, but to work with the RSE to direct the strategic direction of the 
RFC series.

(Consider for example an RSE that's doing what the community wants, but 
not what the RSEB wants - if the LLC gets lots of messages of support 
about the RSE, how much weight should the LLC give to the RSEB's 
comments suggesting the RSE needs to go?)

I guarantee that the LLC (and the ISOC before it) made their own 
determinations of suitability - not necessarily the same ones that the 
IAB or RSOC made.  You could have someone who looked good on paper and 
wowed every member of the IAB, but  didn't meet their criteria hen the 
LLC did its due diligence.  I'd expect that to mostly come from the 
lawyers working contract issues.

I think you're making too much of this - the LLC is the contracting 
entity.   It's going to try to be doing the right thing for the 
community, and the RSEB/Search Committee will hopefully provide the LLC 
with one or more good candidates for that role.  I'd be shocked if they 
selected someone else - mainly because I don't think they want that much 
work.  But I could actually see it happening if say the search committee 
is unable to find someone, and there's a need for an interim.  Maybe 
expanding Jay's role for a while, or getting the RPC to amend the 
contract to pick up some of the need - options that the LLC might take 
to maintain the business of the IETF.

I assume you meant inscribing RFCs on clay tablets not "RSEs"?

Well, first if the RSEB was seriously convinced that clay tablets made 
sense, I'd be trying to figure out how to replace each and every one of 
the RSEB members, or I'd be looking at the voting record and replacing 
the 5 RSEB members that said this was a good idea.

If the RSEB proposes an idea that the RSE doesn't want to go along with, 
then the recourse is for the RSEB to approach the LLC or CM and ask them 
to intercede.  The LLC or CM may or may not choose to intercede and will 
have to make those decisions based on what the contract says and their 
perception of reality.

Lastly, if the RSEB feels that clay tablets are the way to go, they can 
always write their own plan and approve it themselves. Alternately, they 
can ask the LLC to hire someone specifically to write that proposal.

And clay tablets are a good thing?  I'd find this question more 
interesting if you could provide a much better example and explain how 
"good" is determined.

Again, there's nothing preventing the RSEB from doing the work itself if 
it believes it has the better solution.

We actually want someone to say no if the RSEB is making bad decisions - 
it's reputational on the RSEs part not to do things that a broader 
community would find .... stupid.    I'd expect at least this model from 
anyone I'd hire as a contractor - or why would I hire them?  I may not 
always agree with their choices, but I'm paying them for a specific set 
of expertise.

I've been around long enough to see what a bad system looks like (cf the 
IDEA series or even PKCS11 by Oasis).   The main problems with the RFC 
series appear to be pre-publication or so I opine given the data.  The 
actual publication process and model works reasonably well, with vastly 
varying qualities of submissions, and many different requirements.   The 
documents are available world wide and in a manner that allows free and 
easy access.  The documents are widely cited, and the stability of the 
references means that those cites are meaningful 20+ years later.

So, yes, we disagree.

Later, Mike

          &gt; Well, contrary to popular belief, neither the IAB nor the
          RSOC has<br>
          &gt; ever had hiring or firing authority.  In the ISOC era,
          that rested<br>
          &gt; with the HR department I believe.  In the LLC era it
          rests with the<br>
          &gt; LLC .  What the IAB and RSOC did have was the ability to
          recommend<br>
          &gt; or request the selection of a particular candidate by the
          hiring<br>
          &gt; entity.  A good portion of the problem we encountered was
          them not<br>
          &gt; understanding those limitations.  The LLC has indicated
          an intent to<br>
          &gt; defer to the wishes of the IAB in this matter, but
          legally, the role<br>
          &gt; still resides with the LLC.<br>
          &gt; <br>
          &gt; With respect to hiring, in the "new" model, the RSEB can
          recommend<br>
          &gt; RSE candidates to the LLC, but if the LLC isn't able to
          come to an<br>
          &gt; agreement on terms with that candidate, there's nothing
          the RSEB can<br>
          &gt; do to change that.  That again was no different than
          before.  The<br>
          &gt; LLC - legally, but probably not ever going to happen
          practically -<br>
          &gt; could actually hire whoever they wanted irrespective of
          any input<br>
          &gt; from the RSEB, IAB, IESG etc.<br>
          <br>
          I agree with some of this and disagree with other parts:<br>
          <br>
          1. Yes, I imagine that the LLC (and ISOC before it) could
          legally hire<br>
          anyone they wanted and give them any title they wanted.
          However, this<br>
          would not make them the RSE for the purposes of our process
          (as was<br>
          discussed in detail in IASA 2.0). Here is the relevant text
          from<br>
          6635:<br>
          <br>
             The RSE is appointed by the IAB, but formally hired by the
          IAOC.  The<br>
             IAB delegates the direct oversight over the RSE to the
          RSOC, which it<br>
             appoints.<br>
        </div>
      </div>
    </blockquote>
    <p>That's what it says.  And you're correct that the RSE might be
      considered "illegitimate" if the LLC ignored the formal
      appointment and hired someone to do the work of the RSE, even
      without the actual title.  But the LLC has the money, and as such
      has the veto power regardless of what the documents say. 
      Appointing a non-IAB approved (or in my case non-RSEB recommended)
      RSE could end up with the LLC getting yelled at by the community,
      but it still doesn't change the reality of how the contracting
      business works.</p>
    <p>The recourse here - as noted before - is that the RSEB could
      refuse to publish the (illegitimate) RSE's work.<br>

          2. The purpose of these documents is in part to memorialize
          our<br>
          understanding of the terms under which the LLC is expected to
          act.<br>
          So, while 6635 I think makes clear that the LLC ought to
          contract<br>
          with/hire either the person that the IAB/RSOC selects or
          nobody,<br>
          your document appears to change that. But perhaps I've

          you. Hence some questions about your intent:<br>
          <br>
          - If the LLC ignored the RSEB's chosen candidate and selected<br>
            their own, would they be able to act as the RSE for the<br>
            purposes of this process, such as chairing the RSEB?<br>

      </div>
    </blockquote>
    <p>That would be an interesting discussion.  In any event the person
      hired as RSE would be doing the work - the RSEB could either
      approve it or not for publication.  My guess is that all of that
      would work itself out either by the RSE being replaced, by the
      RSEB being replaced, or by the LLC being replaced - whichever made
      more sense to the community.<br>

    <p>The RSEB and RSEB members may make any comments they want to the
      LLC.  The LLC can assign those comments as much or as little
      weight as they feel appropriate.  That may result in the LLC
      asking the RSEB to set up a search, or for the LLC re-uping the
      RSE irrespective of the RSEBs desires.   This is pretty much how
      the IAB takes community comments on the ISE AFAICT.   The point is
      that the RSEB isn't there to manage the RSE, but to work with the
      RSE to direct the strategic direction of the RFC series.<br>
    </p>
    <p>(Consider for example an RSE that's doing what the community
      wants, but not what the RSEB wants - if the LLC gets lots of
      messages of support about the RSE, how much weight should the LLC
      give to the RSEB's comments suggesting the RSE needs to go?)<br>

          &gt; In any event, the LLC handles personnel and contract

          &gt; never the twain shall meet. I doubt that the RSEB is

          RSE is at<br>
          &gt; odds with what the RSEB members believe is the correct
          path.  If the<br>

          &gt; the RSEB make those concerns known to the LLC, its

          <br>
          As noted above, this seems to me to be a material change from<br>
          the existing 6635 situation in which the LLC would not be
          expected<br>

    </blockquote>
    <p>I guarantee that the LLC (and the ISOC before it) made their own
      determinations of suitability - not necessarily the same ones that
      the IAB or RSOC made.  You could have someone who looked good on
      paper and wowed every member of the IAB, but  didn't meet their
      criteria hen the LLC did its due diligence.  I'd expect that to
      mostly come from the lawyers working contract issues.</p>
    <p>I think you're making too much of this - the LLC is the
      contracting entity.   It's going to try to be doing the right
      thing for the community, and the RSEB/Search Committee will
      hopefully provide the LLC with one or more good candidates for
      that role.  I'd be shocked if they selected someone else - mainly
      because I don't think they want that much work.  But I could
      actually see it happening if say the search committee is unable to
      find someone, and there's a need for an interim.  Maybe expanding
      Jay's role for a while, or getting the RPC to amend the contract
      to pick up some of the need - options that the LLC might take to
      maintain the business of the IETF.<br>

          But perhaps this is just a matter of me not understanding what<br>
          you have written down. Let's consider a concrete case:<br>
          <br>
          The RSEB \setminus RSE wants to proceed in a certain strategic<br>
          direction (inscribing the RSEs on clay tablets say). They ask
          the RSE<br>
          to develop the plan to do so, but the RSE opposes it and so
          refuses to<br>
          do so in a timely fashion. What, if any, recourse does the
          RSEB have?<br>
        </div>
      </div>
    </blockquote>
    <p>I assume you meant inscribing RFCs on clay tablets not "RSEs"?<br>
    </p>
    <p>Well, first if the RSEB was seriously convinced that clay tablets
      made sense, I'd be trying to figure out how to replace each and
      every one of the RSEB members, or I'd be looking at the voting
      record and replacing the 5 RSEB members that said this was a good
      idea.<br>
    </p>
    <p>If the RSEB proposes an idea that the RSE doesn't want to go
      along with, then the recourse is for the RSEB to approach the LLC
      or CM and ask them to intercede.  The LLC or CM may or may not
      choose to intercede and will have to make those decisions based on
      what the contract says and their perception of reality.</p>
    <p>Lastly, if the RSEB feels that clay tablets are the way to go,
      they can always write their own plan and approve it themselves. 
      Alternately, they can ask the LLC to hire someone specifically to
      write that proposal.<br>

          provides an<br>
          &gt; &gt; appropriate level of accountability to the
          community. Specifically, I<br>
          &gt; &gt; believe it is necessary to have the ultimate
          authority for stratetic<br>
          &gt; &gt; decisions be vested in the community (in this case
          this would be the<br>
          &gt; &gt; RSEB, ignoring for the moment its composition), but
          that does not<br>
          &gt; &gt; appear to be the case here. This issue is
          exacerbated by the fact<br>
          &gt; &gt; that the RSE is themselves a member of the RSEB.<br>
          &gt; <br>
          &gt; 1) Strategic decisions ARE vested in the community.  It
          takes at<br>
          &gt; least 5 members of the RSEB (which may or may not include
          the RSE)<br>
          &gt; to approve a new document that describes changes in
          strategy.  The<br>
          &gt; RSEB represents the community.  If it isn't written down,
          it didn't<br>
          &gt; happen.<br>
          <br>
          Sure, and that prevents the RSE from unilaterally doing bad
          things but<br>
          it does not prevent the RSE from effectively stalling good
          things they<br>
          don't agree with. See the example I gave above.<br>

    <p>And clay tablets are a good thing?  I'd find this question more
      interesting if you could provide a much better example and explain
      how "good" is determined.</p>
    <p>Again, there's nothing preventing the RSEB from doing the work
      itself if it believes it has the better solution.    <br>
    </p>
    <p>We actually want someone to say no if the RSEB is making bad
      decisions - it's reputational on the RSEs part not to do things
      that a broader community would find .... stupid.    I'd expect at
      least this model from anyone I'd hire as a contractor - or why
      would I hire them?  I may not always agree with their choices, but

    <p>I've been around long enough to see what a bad system looks like
      (cf the IDEA series or even PKCS11 by Oasis).   The main problems
      with the RFC series appear to be pre-publication or so I opine
      given the data.  The actual publication process and model works
      reasonably well, with vastly varying qualities of submissions, and
      many different requirements.   The documents are available world
      wide and in a manner that allows free and easy access.  The
      documents are widely cited, and the stability of the references
      means that those cites are meaningful 20+ years later.</p>
    <p>So, yes, we disagree.</p>

Aside from this point about not attaining consensus, I don't see a problem with working groups making decisions.  We routinely make a large number of decisions every week in some working groups.  Most of them might require some debate, but they don't end up in paralysis.  Even for judgment calls.  Paralysis only exists where there are hard constraints or no shared interest in reaching a conclusion (leaving aside for the moment the severe vulnerability of this process to trolling).

But I think that you raise a different point about the relation of style guide to the purpose of the system that we are designing here.  If the goal is to provide strategy, and maintaining a style guide is not entirely strategic decisions, then we need to ensure that the group only provides strategic input.  That is, the process of editing and publication does not depend on the "working group" providing timely decisions.

I had envisaged an ownership model that is less direct.  That is, the RPC (or whatever they are called) would be empowered to exercise judgment in tactical matters, such as in the example Jay raised.  They would own the style guide in the same way that a document editor might own a working group document.  They then effectively are proposing changes to the group, based on their own "running code": the practices they actively follow.

If the group wants to debate the strategic merit of RPC decisions, that is fine, but the RPC needs to keep the lights on, so once a strategic direction is agreed, I would expect them to eventually move to follow that.  Any inconsistencies between practice and direction might then need to be resolved.  My expectation is that the RPC will make sensible decisions and any eventual strategic decision will rarely be incompatible with practice.  True conflicts between direction and practice can be negotiated as part of contracts, by the LLC.  (That isn't always a failure of strategic direction, as some elements of strategic direction might affect contract terms in material ways, such as those that affect the cost of providing the service.)

This general split between tactical needs and strategic direction is something that I've observed to cause problems with xml2rfc development as well.  The goal there was to run design decisions through a "working group".  But that turned out to be unworkable, slow, and fraught with conflict.  What we have now is the code (or practice) leading the standardization (or formalization) effort.  That's now at the point where I'm uncomfortable with the openness of that process and the extent to which it is responsive to the community.  But we have a chance to learn from that process here.

FYi, the RPC asks me to make small style decisions all the time. These
are on the order of whether some chunk of text looks more like artwork
or a snippet of source code, or what's the best way to handle nested
quoted text in some context. The answers to these are mostly
arbitrary, and it is more important that they be answered consistently
than that any individual decision be made one way or the other.

If this sort of stuff were pushed up to WGs it would not be a good use
of WG time, and if different questions were pushed to different WGs,
we'd get different answers which would make the series look worse.
It's not a bad idea to have one person whose job is to think about
this stuff in the context of the whole RFC series, not individual
documents.

R's,
John

Thanks for your complete response which helps me understand your position

As I said in my initial review, I believe that the structure you propose
would not allow for a sufficient level of community oversight over the RSE
function. In particular, I think the RSOC/IAB/RSEB whatever needs to be
empowered to replace the RSE if they do not agree with their strategic
direction. I believe that is fairly clearly the case under 6635 and should
be the case under any new structure and is not under what you propose.

Chairs: sounds like a good topic for the interim.

          <br>
          I agree with some of this and disagree with other parts:<br>
          <br>
          1. Yes, I imagine that the LLC (and ISOC before it) could
          legally hire<br>
          anyone they wanted and give them any title they wanted.
          However, this<br>
          would not make them the RSE for the purposes of our process
          (as was<br>
          discussed in detail in IASA 2.0). Here is the relevant text
          from<br>
          6635:<br>
          <br>
          =C2=A0 =C2=A0The RSE is appointed by the IAB, but formally hired =
by the
          IAOC.=C2=A0 The<br>

          =C2=A0 =C2=A0appoints.<br>
        </div>
      </div>
    </blockquote>
    <p>That&#39;s what it says.=C2=A0 And you&#39;re correct that the RSE m=

      considered &quot;illegitimate&quot; if the LLC ignored the formal

      without the actual title.=C2=A0 But the LLC has the money, and as suc=
h
      has the veto power regardless of what the documents say.=C2=A0
      Appointing a non-IAB approved (or in my case non-RSEB recommended)
      RSE could end up with the LLC getting yelled at by the community,
      but it still doesn&#39;t change the reality of how the contracting
      business works.</p>
    <p>The recourse here - as noted before - is that the RSEB could

          direction (inscribing the RSEs on clay tablets say). They ask
          the RSE<br>
          to develop the plan to do so, but the RSE opposes it and so
          refuses to<br>
          do so in a timely fashion. What, if any, recourse does the
          RSEB have?<br>

    <p>Well, first if the RSEB was seriously convinced that clay tablets
      made sense, I&#39;d be trying to figure out how to replace each and
      every one of the RSEB members, or I&#39;d be looking at the voting
      record and replacing the 5 RSEB members that said this was a good
      idea.<br>
    </p>
    <p>If the RSEB proposes an idea that the RSE doesn&#39;t want to go
      along with, then the recourse is for the RSEB to approach the LLC
      or CM and ask them to intercede.=C2=A0 The LLC or CM may or may not
      choose to intercede and will have to make those decisions based on
      what the contract says and their perception of reality.</p>
    <p>Lastly, if the RSEB feels that clay tablets are the way to go,
      they can always write their own plan and approve it themselves.=C2=A0
      Alternately, they can ask the LLC to hire someone specifically to
      write that proposal.<br>

          &gt; &gt; decisions be vested in the community (in this case

          exacerbated by the fact<br>
          &gt; &gt; that the RSE is themselves a member of the RSEB.<br>
          &gt; <br>
          &gt; 1) Strategic decisions ARE vested in the community.=C2=A0 It
          takes at<br>

          it does not prevent the RSE from effectively stalling good

I'd like to thank both of you for being clear in your arguments as well. 
This is shaping up to be two competing, mutually incompatible visions 
regarding accountability. While there is certainly room for refinement 
to both visions to make them more palatable to proponents of the other 
side, we, as a community, are clearly going to have to choose one rough 
direction over the other.

I agree with Eric's general concerns about the path of recourse 
indicated by draft-stjohns-rfced-rseb and the subsequent clarifying 
comments. There's one thing in particular that sticks out as highly 
problematic:

On 9/5/2020 7:02 PM, Michael StJohns wrote:

 From the perspective of designed accountability, this is asking the LLC 
to take on ownership of decisions that are clearly outside of its 
intended purview. In the IASA2 conversations, the LLC was envisioned as 
a support function, not a deliberative one (which is why, e.g., it is 
part of no appeals chain). I'm looking through RFC 8711, and -- aside 
from the "compliance" bullet, which can bear on contract and personnel 
decisions in very limited and legally-required ways -- really don't see 
how one can conclude that it would be appropriate for the LLC to be the 
sole arbiter of whether an RSE is renewed or dismissed.

It seems to me that the primary complaint that initiated this current 
effort is a belief that the community needs to be more directly involved 
in determining whether the RSE is performing his or her duties to the 
satisfaction of the community. This proposal is a giant step away from 
fixing that.

Hi,

I agree with Adam that this conversation is bringing a good degree of =
clarity.

But there's something here I don't understand.

If you employ someone and they don't deliver (wilfully or because they =
lack the skills) you may choose to fire them.
If the hiring is on the recommendation of a person or group, then that =
person or group can also recommend firing.
But if the contract is held by a body, it is only that body that can =
terminate the contract.

Thus, are we just debating the strength of a recommendation?

In contracts I am used to, one body (usually the "contracts department") =
holds the contract: they sign it at the start and they are formally =
responsible for termination. But the request to them to start a =
contract, the formal acceptance of deliverables or work done, the =
authorisation for payment, and any request to terminate comes from =
another body (usually the "engineering department").

I can't see how anything we are proposing is different, but we may be =
debating how much "community control" there is in the selection, =
acceptance, and termination parts. The request for community control may =
come from a fear that "the wrong thing may happen" or "I want to be able =
to participate in the decision-making and influence the result". If so, =
we need to move beyond that and understand delegated authority. When =
delegated authority goes wrong, the community can replace the people who =
got it wrong. We do not need community micro-management of all delegated =
decisions (although consultation and discussion is a fine thing).

Best,
Adrian

 From the perspective of designed accountability, this is asking the LLC =

Hi Adrian,

I think there are three questions here:

1. Who is responsible for making the decision to hire?
2. Who is responsible for making the decision to renew a contract?
3. Who is responsible for making the decision to terminate a contract
before renewal?

Let's take the first two first. In the current structure under 6635, the
decision to contract with a given person is made by a community-appointed
body which is responsible for strategy (the IAB delegated the RSOC).
Without their approval, no hiring can happen. Then once they approve, the
LLC is responsible for actually executing a contract. If they can't come to
terms, the IAB/RSOC may need to select someone else, but the LLC doesn't
have the latitude to just hire someone who the IAB/RSOC hasn't approved
(again, they can legally do so but they would be in violation of 6635 and
that person wouldn't have any authority within our process). This matches
the situation you indicate where there is a contracts/legal department who
is responsible for actually negotiating with the contractor who is selected
by the department that actually wants the services, but they don't hire
people which that department doesn't want. IOW, this isn't about strength
of recommendation but rather about who is responsible for vendor selection.

The question of termination prior to renewal is more complicated; in some
cases contracts are written with easy termination and in some without, and
that's a question we should have some opinions on, but is secondary to the
question above.

I think we're largely on the same page here. My key concern about the 
proposal that this thread is discussing is that it is pushing for the 
LLC to be "the people who get it right/wrong," and that's entirely the 
wrong body. Yes, they legally hold the contract because that's what the 
LLC is defined to be: the thing that legally owns the stuff that the 
IETF needs to have legally owned. But, again, the LLC doesn't have any 
deliberative functions, and it's pretty clear (both from the IASA2 
conversations and the text in RFC 8711) that this was entirely 
intentional. If we want to re-open discussions on the role of the LLC to 
this degree, I think we're moving way outside the scope of this IAB 
activity and towards an "IASA3" proposal.

I'm not at all sure about that. Who made that complaint?

My complaint is that the mishmash consisting of the IAB's view of its job,
the RSOC's idea of an "oversight" mechanism, the matrix management mess
created by the LLC and the RSE both having contract management authority,
and conflicting opinions about the breadth of purpose of the RFC series,
combined to make the RSE's job impossible.

There's been a lot said both on mailing lists and at plenaries that 
points in this direction: significant swaths of the conversation last 
June/July on ietf@ietf.org could be fairly summarized as "the community 
should have been looped into this process earlier." There's even a 
message on June 20, 2019 where you offered a position of "community 
input on how the RFC Series is working and what needs to be adjusted 
would be the obligatory first step," which is clearly asking for more 
direct involvement.

Don't read more into my statement than I intend: I would never want to 
see some kind of management by consensus in plenary, and I don't think 
anyone has seriously proposed that. What I'm saying is that there's a 
clear signal that the community wants to be more involved rather than 
less involved, and that Mike's characterization in the message I was 
replying to was driving in the opposite direction.

If you think I'm wrong in my evaluation of what the community expressed, 
I'd appreciate you being clear about whether you think the community 
wanted to be less involved than they were last June or exactly as 
involved as they were last June, since those are really the only two 
other options.

Ah, OK, I see what you mean. It seems to me that was largely directed
at the way the RSOC seemed to be operating, prior to the RSE's resignation.

Yes, and I do of course support a more open body than Mike's Board.
That's why my draft borrows very heavily from Martin's.

No, not at all. It was mainly the word "primary" that triggered me.

Greetings to all!

Our next meeting  will take place on September 15th at 23:00 GMT.  WebEx =
information can be found below.

The chairs have been enjoying the group engaging in a good back and =
forth about the various proposals for the evolution of the RFC Editor =
function.  Our goal is to narrow down to a starting point for adoption =
as a WG draft.  Note the words =E2=80=9Cstarting point=E2=80=9D, not =
ending point.

We observe that there are four proposals to discuss at our interim, and =
this will form the basis of our agenda, which we propose to be as =
follows:

Note Well (Brian)
Agenda Bashing (Brian)
Brief overview by authors of their proposals (in order of submission)
draft-brownlee-rfc-series-and-rse-changes-01 (Nevil =E2=80=93 5-10 =
minutes)
draft-thomson-rfced-model-01 (Martin =E2=80=93 5-10 minutes)
draft-carpenter-rfced-model-00 (Brian =E2=80=93 5-10 minutes)
draft-stjohns-rfced-rseb-00 (Mike =E2=80=93 5-10 minutes)
A brief comparison of proposals (Eliot- 5 minutes)
Discussion (remaining time minus 10 minutes)
Humming (2 minutes) (Brian)
Next steps (2-3 minutes) (Brian)
AOB

During Item 3 we would ask that there be only clarifying questions, as =
we are devoting roughly half the time to discussion.

Any hums will be verified on list.

Please send any additions/changes you would like to see Real Soon Now.

Brian and Eliot

Hello everyone,

I have created a session request for IETF 109. My finger in the wind at =
this point tells me that we=E2=80=99ll run for about 90 minutes, but the =
slot requests are either 1 or 2 hours.  We may revise this based on some =
agenda bashing after the interim.

We are generally trying to take into account the conflicts of authors, =
but that may be too tough already.

More on this after the interim next week.

Martin,

TL;DR summary: Openness, transparency, and broad involvement is
important, but the IETF also needs to recognize when the
community does not have knowledge and expertise and deal with
that, not just assume the adequacy of IETF community wisdom.

     ----

Apologies for not getting back to the second part of my comments
on this -- have been busy and have hoped that others would
either make the point or clear up my confusion.  I've also
struggled to make it short.   Given the interim meeting/call in
an hour, time is obviously up.

I am confused.  I was confused and frustrated (your fault only
to a very small degree) long before you posted the note
excerpted below and those are major reasons why I've been so
quiet on this list.

Openness and transparency and a greater degree of involvement in
community involvement is great.  A certain amount of skepticism
about designated "leaders" or designated experts is too and I
think we often have too little of it.   However, this gets tied
up with a problem I've observed occasionally in several
engineering communities in a variety of fields including the
IETF.  That is an implicit assumption that, because the
community and its members are expert in its particular area
--and, in the case of the IETF, often quite dismissive of people
who comment in that area but appear to lack expertise-- that the
expertise extends to all areas.  In those other areas, we need
to understand what we don't know, seek outside expertise, and,
to at least some degree, rely on it... just as we expect people
from very different areas, to rely on us.  While there may be
exceptions, it generally is a bad idea to have network engineers
doing brain surgery and an almost equally bad one to have brain
surgeons designing network protocols.

We can, and should, expect those outside experts to explain and
educate, but that expectation is reasonable only if we are
willing to listen and learn.

In some areas, the IETF has recognized its collective
limitations in other areas.  The creation of the IASA (and now
IASA2) is a reasonable example of such recognition because most
of us are not expert in the sorts of financial and
administrative areas IASA/IASA2 is suppose to provide expertise.
Perhaps the observation that few of us want to be heavily
involved with such things helps in that recognition.

But, in other areas, ones that I suggest including publications
strategy issues, determining whether documents are clear to a
broad range of readers outside our narrow community, making sure
documents are available and readable for _very_ long periods of
time (presumably long after the IETF disappears because
institutions like it usually do), we continue to prove quite
poor at understanding and accepting the gaps in the community's
knowledge.    Those topics are not unique -- I'll avoid a list
in the interest of space, but there are a few even more obvious
examples that lie closer to our protocol work.

So my confusion about your hard constraints and many of the
other discussions on this list is that we want high quality and
long-lived documents but, at the same time, we apparently want
to rely on the expertise and authority of the community rather
than finding actual experts and giving them authority.   I don't
see how those fit nicely together.  Perhaps some of us really
don't care about much of what I'm lumping together as quality
and longevity.  Others clearly do.  If so, just as your note
suggests, we should be having a clearer and more focused
discussion of that specific issue.  Similarly, the authority can
subject to oversight of various sorts but having the collective
wisdom of the community override expert judgment may be no more
sensible than believing that a committee of brain surgeons would
be good designers of network protocols even if one of them were
not.  We can insist that the expert(s) educate us, but only if
we have the time and inclination to be educated -- something of
which I've seen little evidence in this topic area or even in
the discussions on this list.

So, which is it?  Because, until we get there, it seems to be
that trying to pin down titles and exactly organizational
relationships might be missing the point.

thanks for listening,
   john

Hi John,

I had a little trouble following the thread here, but to answer your most direct question...

So I did put the question of vesting authority in an individual as a hard constraint.  But only because one person is the ultimate closed board, where making internal communications open to public engagement or scrutiny is maximally difficult.

If there is something we need then yes, we need to know that we need it.  You and others have amply demonstrated that people are willing to agitate for contracting specialized expertise, so I'm not concerned about that aspect.  We then need to then source that expertise.  I have suggested this be ad-hoc, Brian suggests something like having someone on retainer (with some other duties that ensure they stay engaged).  I don't see that latter distinction as being as important relative to the key distinction: expertise is sought as advice.

Then finally we need to listen (and this seems to be your pivotal point).  You assert that future incarnations of some open group might either not seek advice when necessary, or might ignore such advice if it does not have some authoritative impetus.

Yes, we have numerous examples where individuals reject well-considered input from experts.  That might be more acute when advise is outside of the expertise of the group (in a general sense, I'm constantly impressed by the diversity of expertise represented in this community).  It's a threat we can acknowledge, but I don't think that the cost of the defense you propose is anywhere near worth paying.

I think this debate is evolving into a somewhat old conversation about trust
versus accountability.

On the one hand, an advisor's advice might be summarily ignored by our
decision-makers.
On the other hand, a person with delegated authority might not deliver what
we want.

I don't see how these two situations are markedly different. In the first
case, the community replaces the decision-makers. In the second case, the
contract of the person is terminated. Both risk us wasting some time, having
to unpick decisions, and expending some angst to get back on track. Both
situations can be properly managed through oversight from the community and
through proper and respectful communication.

On which side of the choice an individual falls seems (to me) to depend on
where their paranoia is rooted: do you trust the I* to mainly follow expert
advice, or do you trust an expert with well-defined directives to deliver?

But there are other things that should influence this choice. The principal
one that should concern us is the level of commitment to the IETF that we
get from a consultant/employee/contractor in the different cases. How much
control over their destiny does someone feel they have; how easy is it for
them to throw up their hands and walk away; how strongly do they remain
motivated to continue doing their absolute best?

Those factors may also significantly influence the number and type of person
who applies.

Best,
Adrian

I think there is *absolutely* a marked difference: in a structure where 
continuous leadership change is part of the expected order of things, 
the former is business as usual, while the latter is clearly a traumatic 
event for the community.

(This is assuming that the replacement happens on a normal nomcom cycle 
in the former case, and on a normal contract renewal cycle in the 
latter. If you're talking about out-of-cycle replacements: as John is 
fond of pointing out, mid-term recall process has never been successful; 
and mid-contract termination would be legally dicey except in the most 
egregious of violations.)

Hi Adam,

Most contracts I sign with customers give them the ability to cancel =
with 30 days' notice and no reason given. That is the nature of the =
beast. (I believe in the US employment contracts are not typically =
better than this.)

I think it is absolutely the case that people retained in consultancy or =
contracting roles also expect to be on a continuous re-hiring cycle, so =
I can't see the difference you are making. That makes me reassert that =
how one sees this problem depends on where you are coming from not where =
you want to get to.

Since you refer to the NomCom cycle, you seem to agree that replacing =
wrong-doers up to two years after the event is acceptable. So a two-year =
renewable contract would be of a similar form. But, of course, more =
flexibility can be achieved using a one-year renewable contract.

I* recall is roughly in the same bracket as contract termination for =
contract violation. It rarely happens and is subject to all sorts of =
checks and balances.

Best,
Adrian

Hi,

The chairs will have more to say about how things went yesterday, but I =
wanted to share something based on the comparison I did.  These are =
slides you are free to use as you see fit, but when it came to =
identifying issues, I thought these might prove helpful, to a point.

I'd like to enter into evidence that Spencer (to pick a random person) 
is no longer on the IESG, and no one felt the need to spin up an IAB 
program in response to his departure. There are very different 
presumptions in the community about the likelihood of renewal between 
the two arrangements.

If this distinction isn't obvious to you at this point, I'm not sure 
there's much more I can say on the topic to help you understand the 
point I'm making. I'm going to stop responding now under the assumption 
that other participants can.

Yes, I have a very different expectation about persistence and retention.

The RSE (or whatever we rename such a person if we keep the role) 
provides skills that this community does not have.  They provide skills 
that we are demonstrably not good at recruiting.  Based on the learning 
curve for outsiders to learn the job, it is also a job with a 
significant amount of context.  Replacing that person every 4 years 
would be a bad thing for the community (if you assume we agree that we 
should have such a person).

I have been trying to figure out what compromises in approach I can live 
with, and what points from various proposals seem to make sense to me, 
and if there is any way to put them together.    I am quite sympathetic 
to the view that the community needs a stronger voice in the long term 
strategic direction of the RFC series.  I am very concerned by the 
proposals which remove the role of a publication expert in providing 
guidance to the RPC (AMS provides direct line management.  They do not 
provide publication expertise in the sense we mean it.  Heck, although 
they provide the web publication service, that is not their primary 
expertise.)

I am wondering if there is some middle ground on this.  Keep the RSE as 
a person in charge of the tactical and hybrid (between tactical and 
strategic) direction, with an explicit role of providing advise on the 
strategic direction.  And somehow craft a community body to own the true 
strategic direction (roughly, things where if it takes 2 years to work 
out an agreement, that's okay.  But not looking at the quesiton is a bad 
idea.)

I am not sure how to set up the chairing and reporting of this body.

Yours,
Joel

Yes. The analogy with our pro bono counsel is a good one (except that
I have no expectation of finding a pro bono RFC Series Advisor). Our 
previous pro bono counsel was with the IETF for at least 18 years. He
got to know us fairly well.

I want to focus on that. At least in my mind, the decision maker is an open WG operating by rough consensus. Yes, that could lead to explicitly ignoring expert advice. Isn't that exactly how the IETF works? Why is it more broken in this case than it is in the IETF?

In any case it makes it clear that the WG is accountable for its own mistakes, and that's a WG that is open to the entire community. So any mistakes are made by (the interested parties in) the community itself. And people who didn't participate have only themselves to blame.

Yes, but one of the problems with that analogy is that Spencer,
IIR, stepped down voluntarily (at least as far as the IETF is
concerned).   Better analogies would be someone who was willing
to serve again but was not given another term by the Nomcom.
Even then, we don't spin up IAB programs (and the community
would almost certainly consider it the height of arrogance for
the IAB to even consider doing so).  I suggest that a
significant fraction of the community believes that turnover on
the IESG is actually helpful and that people serving more than,
say, six or eight years would be a problem (I haven't looked at
the statistics lately, but suspect the mode is still four
years).    

Now, by contrast, if we are trying to obtain and retain a
professional-type expert (see Joel's (I think) comment about
finding lawyers only when one needs advice and then finding
another one the next time), there had better be an expectation
of both long tenure (even if on nominally short-term contract
with routine renewals) and that the community will mostly
respect that person's expertise rather than, e.g., regularly
second-guessing them because we assume we (or the IESG, or the
IAB, or the LLC, or even some committee drawn from our community
are smarter and/or more knowledgeable than said expert.  Should
"we" end up behaving that way --regardless of the organizational
structure-- whether the individual leaves in frustration or the
contract is terminated (whether at renewal time or before that)
is just a matter of time (and probably not long).  And, since
every professional community has its own informal "grapevine"
communications, it will likely get harder to find and
successfully recruit the next such person we would go looking
for as a replacement.

I don't know whether the above helps or not, because I'm not
sure we are asking the same question.

Response to Martin's note soon.

FYI, our lawyers are not pro bono, they're on retainer as was our
prior lawyer. I agree with you that it is a good thing in these
specialized jobs to have people stay long enough to learn what we do
and how we work.

FWIW, I've been around for quite a while but in my new role as tRSE
I'm still learning all sorts of stuff about the process, the history,
and the stuff we have yet to do.

R's,
John

And my expectation is that, if we found such a person to do the
work for free and he or she were not named, e.g., "Postel", the
community would behave as is free advise is worth what one pays
for it that the expert/advisor would soon get frustrated and
resign.

Because, in the case of the IETF, there is a strong assumption,
almost always justified, that a significant fraction of the
people in the WG are expert in the subject matter the WG is
considering.  I am not yet convinced that, if we put together
something WG-like, we will be able to populate it sufficiently
that we can have a reasonable expectation of expertise in that
group or, to put it differently, that any consensus reached
(rough or otherwise), will actually be informed consensus.

Sure, but the damage is to the series and its users and that is
much more important than blame.  And, were the word to get
around the professional technical publications community that
whomever takes the position (no matter how we characterize it)
will be reporting to, and subject to the whims of, a collection
of ignorant fools, then the intersection between the set of
people one would want to recruit and the set willing to take the
position will rapidly trend toward zero.

Yes, I knew that he switched to a retainer at some point, but that
actually corresponds better to what we are discussing here. Either way,
we had one expert advisor for the best part of two decades.

TL;DR summary: if we are going to make comparisons to other
organizations that might influence our decisions, those
comparisons should be accurate and sometimes are not.

FWIW, while we start from different places, my concern about
respecting expertise and understanding that having rough
consensus in some IETF body may not constitute informed
consensus lead to nearly the same conclusions.

I don't know much about ETSI, but the situation with ISO
(outside the special circumstances of ISO/IEC JTC1 which, btw,
are becoming less special) and ITU are different enough that the
dichotomy you suggest is not quite right.   Those two differ
but, to oversimplify, the "volunteer" groups that determine
policy are official representatives of National Member Bodies
and governments respectively, not the technical experts (and,
btw, there are qualifications and vetting for those experts
unlike the IETF's "all welcome as long as you don't behave
really badly" policies). In addition, they both operate on
"strong secretariat" and "edit first, vote later" models.  Again
oversimplifying, the secretariats have subject matter and
publications expertise [1] and can, in practice, kill a proposal
for standardization or a document.   And, as discussed earlier
on  this list, having only final-form documents go through the
final public review and approval processes changes this
discussion enough that comparisons are difficult.

> And you know more than I do about how this works at the

I will mostly defer to Mark on that, but again note that W3C has
a professional staff with considerable technical subject matter
expertise and ability to overrule the volunteers on
standardization matters _and_ that they tend more toward living
and incremental documents with snapshot than the more fixed (and
hence potential of being archival) approach used by the IETF [2].

thanks, 
   john


[1] Ours have more than we often recognize, but "we" discourage
them from even expressing those views in substantive
discussions, much less making decisions that can override
participant community consensus.

[2] I think which is better and what we should be doing is
another of the issues about which there are very fundamental
differences of opinion on this list and probably in the IETf
community, differences that, along with the questions of
expertise and ones of whether it is actually important to get
publications right from an editorial and technical clarity
standpoint, probably go on any list of areas in which there are
fundamental enough differences of opinion to make reaching
consensus difficult.

 The chairs would like to thank all who participated in the Interim, =
with a special tip of the hat to those who helped take notes (Rich,
Martin, and others).

Summary

The meeting convened at 11:00pm GMT on Tuesday, September 15th.  After a =
very quick view of the Note Well and Agenda, each author presented each =
of the four proposals that the group had before us.  Eliot then =
presented a comparison that highlighted similarities and differences, =
and then some discussion followed.  There was some discussion about =
which proposals were most similar, and Nevil indicated that he could =
withdraw his in support of Mike=E2=80=99s.  Nobody raised any objections =
to this.

The chairs had hoped to find a single draft that could be viewed as a =
starting point.  However, during the hum it became clear that a good =
number of people were not yet ready to take such a decision.  In the =
jabber chat there were some concerns that by doing so, the inertia to =
make changes from what was adopted would be too high.

One person raised a particular issue, that even an advisor function =
would not be sufficient to continue the existing RPC functions. Others =
(in jabber) felt that this did not give the RPC enough credit.
It was also suggested that a neutral editor try to capture things we =
agree on.

Unless a large number of people want to adopt one of the drafts, this is =
how things will stand for now.

Next Steps

Eliot asked the authors to see how they might combine efforts.=20

Those people who said they were not ready should discuss, please, on =
list, what will make them ready.

We discussed the possibility of another interim, and in particular to =
have that interim at a different time slot so as to share the pain. If =
that meeting should come to pass we will have to put it on the calendar =
very quickly.  That requires progress in terms of convergence.  =
Otherwise our next scheduled meeting will be at IETF109.

I had mentioned in the interim that initially I was concerned that we =

RFC Editor.  That=E2=80=99s why I put that minimum participation item in =
the table.  This is based on the activity I tracked on rfc-interest.  On =

Eliot,

Observation from anecdotal data: This list/program appears to me
to have drawn people who are concerned about the organizational
structure of the RFC Editor function and the future of the
Series.  The rfc-interest list has tended to include topics
associated with similar (and other) strategic issues and a lot
of fairly low-level but intense discussions of, e.g., rather
specific v3 issues.  Those was are interested in one but not the
other may either drop off or stop reading the message flow for
an extended period.  I don't think one can infer from either how
much participation there would be in a long-term maintenance/
advice/ oversight effort, much less whether people with relevant
expertise would participate. 

So I think some form of your minimum participation question --
if intended to extend past the immediate effort -- should remain
on the table.

We could have tasked AMS with hiring the person.
While way outside their wheelhouse, I presume they would do so if asked.

But this person is making day-to-day judgment calls tied closely to 
community agreements.  More so even than Jay as far as I can tell.  Even 
if we remove the long term strategic component from the job, I would 
think we would want them closely tied to the community.  Adding an extra 
level of indirection (Community->Jay->AMS->RPC Lead) seems like making 
things more complicated.  For little or no benefit.

Yours,
Joel

+1.  There's also the problem of having all of our eggs in one basket.  
If for example AMS decided to get out of the IETF business, or the IETF 
behaved badly enough that AMS felt the relationship was no longer 
viable, we'd lose ALL of our publication expertise and especially the 
hard earned IETF specific parts of that.  I would suggest that a small 
bit of redundancy in this space is warranted.

For the most part, I take that as a vote of confidence. The IETF works
well enough that it's not worth their time to worry about admin stuff.

Before we pat ourselves on the back too much, I'd also note that the amount of
progress per megabyte read and written in IETF admin discussions is very low, so
things have to be pretty bad to make it worth getting involved.

R's,
John

I want to understand your point better here, because I don't think that =

I did envisage that the short-term, tactical decisions would be made by =

 to finalize a document, then it is tactical and a decision can be made.=
  (I've seen this many times in AUTH48 recently and for the most part, s=
ensible proposals are made by RPC staff and those are what gets enacted,=
 other times I or another editor have made suggestions, a few cases have=
 involved John.)  But strategic direction needs to be set outside of tha=
t process[*].

[*] My expectation is that we will need processes to ensure that a patte=
rn of tactical decisions don't turn into decisions about strategic direc=
tion.  That process is not something I've developed more, because it's a=
 relatively unimportant detail, but I have some ideas.

+1 to both this and Joel's comment.  =20

It again seems to me that this is another symptom of one of
those fundamental differences in perspective, preferences, and
assumptions.  I don't know if I can state this in a way that is
fair to both sides but it seems to me that, at the extremes:

One set of assumptions is that most of our documents are close
to ok when they get through the IESG (or equivalent for other
streams); that only light copy editing is needed (if that); that
if authors are not comfortable in American English, implications
of that should be sorted out long before their document leaves
the Stream and enters production;  that some stylistic
inconsistencies are ok (especially if it saves time) and that we
really should not be insisting on stylistic and layout issues
that go much beyond those required for consistency with RFC 7841
and assorted IPR documents; and that, if some issues in the
language used in a specification are later identified as
ambiguous or otherwise problematic, it will be fine to issue
errata, assume everyone will find them, and treat them as
authoritative changes.    One consequence of those assumptions
is that we don't need anything equivalent to an RSE at all
except maybe as a source of occasional advice (and probably not
that) and that the RPC can do anything that is needed and that
the RPC staff may actually be overqualified and intervening in
documents too much.

At the other extreme, the assumptions are that we want a highly
professional series (a series, not just a collection of
documents we found a way to number), a consistent and
professional style, an editorial team that is expected to have
enough subject matter to work with the terminology and issues of
technical clarity (not just pure copy-editing), and documents
that are archival not only in the physical preservation sense
but also of providing a record of the evolution of thinking
about the technical properties and protocols of the Internet.

IT seems to me that, unless we can figure out how to discuss the
differences among those points of view (and points in between)
and decide, meetings that end in "not ready yet" may be
inevitable because the issues we are discussing may be largely
just symptoms.

I think this misrepresents the position of the folks who want a 
consultative RSE instead of an executive RSE. Nearly all of the 
functions you describe above are, and have for a long time been, in the 
remit of the RPC, not the RSE. I'm not even sure whether it would be 
within the charter of this effort to change them.

For example, I think that publication strategy would be better off with 
a community-led process and a consultative RSE; while, at the same time, 
I disagree with almost everything about your foregoing characterization. 
What I would support (although I'd be probably be happy with 
alternatives) is a model that devolves the non-strategic aspects of the 
historic RSE role to an employee of the RPC (either selected from their 
current staff or hired, as they see fit), with the expectation that the 
RPC would continue to leverage their domain knowledge to ensure 
consistent, clearly-written, professional documents.

Adam,

As I said, those were deliberately stated as extremes.   At the
same time, I continue to be concerned about two things that were
a large fraction of what caused me to write that note: (1)
community-driven process is a fine idea except that we have
problems defining, and then capturing the wishes of, the
relevant community for the RFC Series (or Collection).   If it
really means "IETF WG", "IAB Program", or even, "The IETF LLC
ExecDir" then that isn't the community for the RFC Series and,
more important, assumes types of knowledge that are not among
the criteria for which those people are selected or self-select.
(2) From my point of view, this whole problem [1] started
because of a transition of the RSE from "respected senior
colleague" to "just another contractor".  While I have the
highest confidence in AMS, making that role an employee of a
contractor could make that problem even worse, discouraging the
individual from speaking out on important issues. Part of the
concern is that I don't think there is nearly as clear a line
between "strategic" and "operational" as many people have
assumed [2].

best,
   john



[1] Or maybe it isn't a problem, just an opportunity to fix a
system that, despite three major adjustments, had been working
well for about 48 years: (i) replacing a staff that was highly
skilled in the substantive technical content of Internet
protocols with an editorial staff whose skill level is such that
referring to them a "copy editors" is demeaning (and might even
be considered oppressive or exclusionary language), (ii)
switching to an explicit "streams" model and making the ISE a
separate role, and (iii) separating the RSE role from direct
production management and leadership.

[2] part of the problem is that we have a long history of "you
let them do that, therefore, not only do I get to do so too, but
it is now policy" in this area.

Hello everyone,


=E2=80=9CWhen you come to a fork in the road, take it.=E2=80=9D
=E2=80=94 Yogi Bera

The chairs have had an opportunity to discuss the last interim.  We note =
that some people liked the comparison chart, as a means to highlight =
both similarities and differences.   We know that some people would very =
much like to have seen a draft adopted, while others were not ready to =
move forward.  Several people would instead like to go issue by issue =
and resolve those issues before adopting a draft.  The chairs will leave =
this choice to the group as to which way to proceed at the moment.

You are invited to specify your preference on list by September 25th, =
2:00pm GMT.  Option A or Option B.  Please be explicit.

We can pursue one of two approaches:

Option A:  Pursue adopting a draft

The approach would be that we would adopt a draft by IETF 109 =E2=80=93 =
as a starting point.  To avoid further deadlocks, there would be no =
=E2=80=9CI=E2=80=99m not ready=E2=80=9D option in the hum.  Authors are =
invited to merge and indicate open issues in drafts.  Others are =
invited, if they really feel the need, to create new drafts within 2-3 =
weeks.  If there are more than two options, the chairs will find ways to =
wheedle things down to get to a draft to adopt, while being sensitive to =
the concerns EKR and others raised about inertia of what is in a draft.  =
If the group would like an interim to facilitate this option, the chairs =
will accommodate.

Option B: Pursue open issues one by one

Pursue issues one by one to resolve on list, starting with =E2=80=9CDo =
people believe that the RSE position should continue in some form?=E2=80=9D=
  We would pursue from the nature of the role if we get an affirmative =
answer.  Other questions would follow, such as aspects of oversight and =
relationship to RPC.

If after the poll the group is evenly divided between these choices, in =
order to take the fork, the chairs will spin a spinner and make a =
decision.  You are encouraged to discuss these options, and may change =
your minds right up to the deadline.

A Plea

This program consists nearly exclusively of senior members of the =
community-  you are all past or current leaders of this organization =
with deep experience and knowledge.  We therefore hope that you will =
seek to find common ground with one another when you see a deadlock in =
view.

Brian and Eliot

I understand and admire the problem of not being able to clearly 
delineate the relevant community of interest. However, if the concern is 
that we might define a process that excludes their participation because 
they don't know about it, then moving instead to a model where they 
can't participate even if they do must be a step in the wrong direction.

You've left off the context here ("participating in what?"). John and I 
are discussing:

  * Participating in a community-driven process, or
  * Not participating in a community-driven process


Any model that opts for an executive RSE instead of a community-driven 
process necessarily excludes participation in a community-driven process.

You may not have a preference and that is fine.  But others expressed a =
preference in our interim.  If we adopt a draft there will certainly be =
open issues to resolve.  There is no getting around resolving our =

I think from the chairs' point of view, we could indeed do exactly what =

approach.  We are therefore offering an alternative based on a =
suggestion made in the interim.

It is precisely because a large number of people were not ready to make =
a decision that we are at this point.

I hope that is not as strict a dichotomy as you describe.  While the 
approach I described may not work, it seems like there ought to be some 
approach that allows for an effective leader of the series and effective 
and respected community input.

Yours,
Joel

I have a strong preference for Option A.

Our community doesn't have a good, established process in general for 
recording the result of point-by-point discussions an an accessible form 
other than recording them in an internet draft. (I don't consider 
trolling through voluminous email archives and meeting minutes to be 
"accessible.")

We need a vehicle for tracking these decisions before we get too far 
down the path of making a long string of them. Unless we can agree on 
using some kind of issue-tracking system to record these decisions 
(which would be its own controversial bag of worms for the current set 
of participants), the conventional vehicle is an internet-draft. Let's 
get that in place and then start working on sanding down the rough edges.

Again,  you're losing the context here. I was specifically responding to 
John's assertion:

...which implicitly dismisses the notion of a community-driven process 
under the premise that some people might be excluded. My point -- and 
I'm trying to make a very narrowly-focused point here -- is that this 
specific line of argumentation is flawed inasmuch as you can't fix 
unintentional disenfranchisement by replacing it with intentional 
disenfranchisement.

That's it. That's the point. That's the whole point.

Neither chair has difficulty with managing an issue tracker.  We can do =

OK, maybe I need a definition of a community-driven process first.

Also, why is that desirable?

OK, I was looking for some discriminators that allow me to tell when a =
process is community-driven and when not.
In particular in contrast to the adjective =E2=80=9Cparticipatory=E2=80=9D=
, which would be the more natural adjective for me to look for.

I just had dinner, and that included two slices of German rye bread.
No kings, presidents, or voting were involved in creating these slices.
As far as I can tell, the creation process wasn=E2=80=99t =
community-driven either.
But they were quite delicious.
(And I can=E2=80=99t really say that about some more "community-driven" =
food creation processes I experienced in the 1970s.)

Hi -

I'm assuming that "if it wasn't written down it didn't happen" or more 
specifically, that changes to the publication system and model will be 
documented and those approved documents will inform any contracts or 
operational model.  If anyone disagrees with that assumption, I'd like 
to hear their reasoning.

Based on that assumption, I have the following question and subsidiary 
questions:

Question:  Do we create a separate Editorial Stream?

If YES - Who approves documents in that stream?

If NO - Where are documents that describe changes to the publication 
process and system published? (The answer implies who approves publication).

Mike

I have sympathy with the =E2=80=9Cfear of inertia=E2=80=9D you attribute =
to Ekr. I know that that should not happen, but I also know that it =
happens both consciously and subconsciously.

=20

I agree with Adam that we work best when we record things in drafts.

=20

What you don=E2=80=99t want, now that you have pinned us to an A-or-B =
decision, is a discussion of other options, but =E2=80=A6 =F0=9F=98=8A

=20

Suppose we adopt an empty-ish draft (perhaps has background and =
objectives, perhaps has initial list of open issues/questions) and then =
follow option B recording each decision in the draft as it comes to =
(rough) consensus?=20

=20

If you wanted to stick to your A-or-B choice, I guess that is B with a =
plan on how to kickstart a draft and fill it in.

Hello everyone,

=20

=20

=E2=80=9CWhen you come to a fork in the road, take it.=E2=80=9D

=E2=80=94 Yogi Bera

=20

The chairs have had an opportunity to discuss the last interim.  We note =
that some people liked the comparison chart, as a means to highlight =
both similarities and differences.   We know that some people would very =
much like to have seen a draft adopted, while others were not ready to =
move forward.  Several people would instead like to go issue by issue =
and resolve those issues before adopting a draft.  The chairs will leave =
this choice to the group as to which way to proceed at the moment.

=20

You are invited to specify your preference on list by September 25th, =
2:00pm GMT.  Option A or Option B.  Please be explicit.

=20

We can pursue one of two approaches:

=20

Option A:  Pursue adopting a draft

=20

The approach would be that we would adopt a draft by IETF 109 =E2=80=93 =
as a starting point.  To avoid further deadlocks, there would be no =
=E2=80=9CI=E2=80=99m not ready=E2=80=9D option in the hum.  Authors are =
invited to merge and indicate open issues in drafts.  Others are =
invited, if they really feel the need, to create new drafts within 2-3 =
weeks.  If there are more than two options, the chairs will find ways to =
wheedle things down to get to a draft to adopt, while being sensitive to =
the concerns EKR and others raised about inertia of what is in a draft.  =
If the group would like an interim to facilitate this option, the chairs =
will accommodate.

=20

Option B: Pursue open issues one by one

=20

Pursue issues one by one to resolve on list, starting with =E2=80=9CDo =
people believe that the RSE position should continue in some =
form?=E2=80=9D  We would pursue from the nature of the role if we get an =
affirmative answer.  Other questions would follow, such as aspects of =
oversight and relationship to RPC.

=20

If after the poll the group is evenly divided between these choices, in =
order to take the fork, the chairs will spin a spinner and make a =
decision.  You are encouraged to discuss these options, and may change =
your minds right up to the deadline.

=20

A Plea

=20

This program consists nearly exclusively of senior members of the =
community-  you are all past or current leaders of this organization =
with deep experience and knowledge.  We therefore hope that you will =
seek to find common ground with one another when you see a deadlock in =
view.

=20

Brian and Eliot

Having read your subsequent exchanges with Joel and Carsten, I
think I finally understand where we disagree.  Like the IETF in
many cases, interested and affected outside parties are rarely
heard from until something goes wrong and then they turn out to
be good at complaining.  I know that Jon (who was, for most of
his tenure, not accountable to the IETF all all) got many such
complaints and examples of feedback and that, in several cases,
the series changed as a result.  I know of at least one during
Bob Braden's tenure and have no reason to believe there weren't
others.  I don't know about Heather's term other than the case
that turned up in which someone outside the community discovered
that had two RFCs with the same number.   My point is that
having an independent, visible, RSE (or equivalent) actually
facilitates such communication in ways that an advisor who is on
the staff of (or consultant to) a contractor may not.  That
distinction is especially important given the IETF's long
tradition of telling people who show up with complaints or
alternate ideas to go write drafts and participate in WGs
because that is the only effective way to have their problems
attended to.  We certainly don't do that always, but we do it
often enough to be a troubling example for cases like this.

Later, in response to Carsten, you wrote...

>> Also, why is that desirable?
> 
> We reject kings, presidents, and voting?

When Dave Clark make that comment, he was very clearly referring
to our decisions about technical protocol work about the
Internet.  For this situation, it is a false analogy both
because of the expertise issues discussed in this  thread and
because we rather often handle work for the IETF that is not
directly network protocol or operational work in a way that
might be construed as kings or presidents.  IASA, and then to
some degree IASA2, arose precisely out of realizations that the
IETF community was not good at that sort of administrative work
and that, if (and when) we tried to do it by community
consensus, the people who were actively involved (by
self-selection) were not representative of the broader
community, not necessarily experts in the work area, etc.  In
the particular (and intentionally narrow) scope of his work, Jay
is rather close to a President or at least a Prime Minister --
the LLC Board is an oversight body, not a management body and,
while we would prefer it, not necessarily all experts in the
substance of the management, administration, and finance parts
of the work. 

Does the community get input? Certainly and none of the
proposals I've seen so far prevent that even if "employee of a
contractor" might actually be the worst option.  Does the
community make the decisions by informed consensus?  Continuing
the analogy it is noteworthy that he asks for consultation
and/or feedback but then he, and the bodies he is working with
make decisions that no one really pretends are made by community
consensus.  And it would be unwise to rely on community
consensus for the RFC Editor Function because the IETF community
doesn't have the expertise, because a self-selected WG is
unlikely to accurately represent the preferences of the IETF
community, and because the community for the RFC Series is
larger than the IETF.

  best,
   john

The "lack of expertise" you cite is precisely why this wouldn't work 
without a expert consultant.

In terms of the other issues -- the IETF has always operated such that 
those who bother to show up to do the work are the ones who get a voice, 
and we seem to think that's okay. You have indicated a belief in a 
bright line between technical and non-technical matters in this regard; 
but note, e.g., that IASA2 was run as a working group with this exact 
set of caveats. (If I missed your congruent objections in the formation 
of that effort, I apologize for the oversight.)

Hi,

Before answering that, I wanted to better understand the discrepancies be=
tween the models. Loosely based on Eliot's charts, I built the attached V=
enn diagram. It's quite subjective, and it skips over many details and su=
btleties. Comments are very welcome (but space for extra text is very lim=
ited).

It's still a bit complex at first sight, but I think we could reduce the =
strategic questions to 5 or 6. My preference is to tackle that for a few =
weeks, before attempting to munge the drafts.

fwiw, the SVG file format is almost ready for inclusion in an I-D.

Regards
   Brian Carpenter

Yes, I believe it's useful.

That's model-dependent, but I assume that in draft-thomson and draft-carp=
enter
it would be the Program/WG by rough consensus, and in draft-stjohns it wo=
uld be
the RSEB by vote.

Again, it's model-dependent. In draft-thomson, it's clearly the IAB strea=
m as
today. In the other two models, we are presumably left with the Independe=
nt
stream.

For the same reasons we discussed on the call, I choose option C - we're 
not ready to pick a path.   That looks closer to Option B than it does 
option A but probably actually isn't the same.  We've talked about 
common solution elements, but we're still having major discussions (cf 
John and and Adam's back and forth) about the implications of various 
choices such that picking solution elements are still quite difficult.  
Among other things, many of the elements are entwined - e.g., choosing 
choice A of Group 1 may restrict your choices in Group 2 to choices C and F.


As I read it we've agreed mostly on one thing:

  * That the stream managers will take a major role in the evolution
    process of the RFC Series.

We seem to have also agreed that (I think this is what I got an 
agreement on from Martin and Brian when I asked the question on the call):

  * The LLC will be responsible for any contractual items including
    hiring/firing/renewals/day-to-day and that any delegation of that
    role will be only to a "fiduciary" of the LLC (e.g. employee or a
    contracted role) to specifically exclude the IAB/RSOC personnel
    management model.

We haven't agreed on:

  * Whether there will be a professional involved in the steering, or
    the model of engagement for that professional.  (e.g. employee or
    retained contractor with primary responsibility vs employee or
    retained contractor with advisory only responsibility or a
    professional contractor engaged only for task-specific short term
    items).

  * The model for publication of documents that drive the publication
    process.

And lots more.

I've been trying to do a topological sort and figure out which of the 
problems is the core one that we need to come to a conclusion on, and 
I'm at a loss.

For the rough consensus models, I have two additional questions:   1) 
Who determines rough consensus (and actually approves the documents for 
publication) - the WG or Program Chairs?  2) If the stream managers  
disagree with the rest of the group, are their oppositions given more 
weight than the self-selected membership?  If not, why not?  If so, then 
how is that figured into the resolution process?

So ultimately, in draft-thomson, the IAB approves publication (per 
normal procedures for the IAB stream) - in other words, no change from 
what's currently happening - is that correct?   For the other two then 
the ISE approves publication (per the normal procedures for that stream) 
- is that correct?

Thanks - Mike

The IAB has handled a number of such documents in the past, so in
practice that part seems to work. But maybe I am wrong. Does anyone

          I'm assuming that "if it wasn't written down it didn't happen"

          <br>
          specifically, that changes to the publication system and model
          will be

          to hear their reasoning.

          <br>
          Based on that assumption, I have the following question and
          subsidiary
          <br>
          questions:
          <br>
          <br>
          Question:  Do we create a separate Editorial Stream?

        Yes, I believe it's useful.
        <br>
         
        <blockquote type="cite" style="color: #000000;">If YES - Who
          approves documents in that stream?
          <br>
        </blockquote>
        That's model-dependent, but I assume that in draft-thomson and
        draft-carpenter
        <br>
        it would be the Program/WG by rough consensus, and in
        draft-stjohns it would be
        <br>
        the RSEB by vote.
        <br>
      </blockquote>
      <br>
      For the rough consensus models, I have two additional questions:  
      1) Who determines rough consensus (and actually approves the
      documents for publication) - the WG or Program Chairs?  2) If the
      stream managers  disagree with the rest of the group, are their
      oppositions given more weight than the self-selected membership? 
      If not, why not?  If so, then how is that figured into the
      resolution process?
      <br>
      <br>
      <blockquote type="cite" style="color: #000000;">
        <blockquote type="cite" style="color: #000000;">If NO - Where
          are documents that describe changes to the publication
          <br>
          process and system published? (The answer implies who approves
          publication).
          <br>
        </blockquote>
        Again, it's model-dependent. In draft-thomson, it's clearly the
        IAB stream as
        <br>
        today. In the other two models, we are presumably left with the
        Independent
        <br>
        stream.
        <br>
      </blockquote>
      <br>
      So ultimately, in draft-thomson, the IAB approves publication (per
      normal procedures for the IAB stream) - in other words, no change
      from what's currently happening - is that correct?   For the other
      two then the ISE approves publication (per the normal procedures
      for that stream) - is that correct?
    </blockquote>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>The IAB has handled a number of such documents in the past, so in
      practice that part seems to work. But maybe I am wrong. Does
      anyone remember documents for which this caused a tension?</p>

Yes, presumably.

I assume it would be like in any IETF WG group: people tend to listen to =

I agree, but it was a pragmatic choice because no other suitable stream e=
xisted (as Heather said on a number of occasions in my hearing). Indeed, =
20+ years ago such documents were simply published by the RFC Editor on t=
heir own account (e.g. RFC825, RFC1111, RFC1543, RFC2223) so this stream =
would be a revival of that system.

FWIW, I agree with Mike.  It seems obvious to me (and was the
main reaon I voted "not ready" last week) that several of the
specific questions I think Eliot is trying to get at with both
Options A and B are not orthogonal [1].  Consequently, if we try
to
go forward by asking a question, reaching a conclusion, and than
considering that conclusion as firm, the order in which
questions are posed is likely to affect the overall conclusions.
If we are allowed to revisit settled questions when the
interactions with others are clear, it will feel as if we are
going around in circles.

Too many of us are starting from such philosophically different
assumptions that "choose one" is just not an answer (the
interaction between Adam and myself is probably a symptom).  I
still suspect (not sure) that (as I suggested during the call)
the most productive path forward would be to find a neutral but
knowledgeable volunteer to create a new document, possibly
building on Nevil's rather than Brian's, Martin's, or Mike's or
just starting from scratch) and get an outline and what we have
actually agreed on written down, then see if we can start adding
thinks in.

best,
   john

[1] Statistical observation: While it is worth trying,
multivariate situations with non-orthogonal variates often do
not lend themselves to developing clarity via Venn diagrams.

Yes and no... and that takes us back to interactions among
different questions.  Back when it was "simply published...",
the RFC Editor didn't need to ask anyone for approval.   For
better or worse, there is no analogy for that in the Stream
model because, while I can't remember an explicit rule, authors
approving their own documents is clearly considered to be in bad
taste.  The Independent Stream comes closest, but were the
person who holds the ISE role to write a document and then
publish it without consulting anyone else, I assume we'd be
fairly unhappy. 

I do remember discussing whether the RSE should be allowed to
publish documents directly in the RFC 4844 timeframe but don't
remember the reasons why a "no" decision was made -- Joel or
others might remember.  I suspect it was because the IAB
considered review and approval to be part of its oversight
responsibility.  

Sometimes, the IAB has basically been passive, doing a quick
review, maybe asking for community comment, and then going ahead
and publishing.  Other times, it has acted as if those really
were its documents and they should not be published without
strong IAB consensus (whether the IAB actually had the relevant
expertise or not).  I suggest that, if we think what got us here
was a result of the IAB intervening inappropriately, then having
the IAB as document approver is not a wildly good idea.  If the
RSE-replacement is going to be an employee or contractor of a
contractor or just an advisor, it is less clear to me why we
need such a stream... at least unless we can set (and keep to)
rather high requirements for expertise in whatever WG or
committee is actually running the show.

best,
    john

While I have trouble seeing it as a version of Option A --or,
more specifically, I cannot support Option A in order to get to
it because of all of the other possible versions -- it is more
or less what I suggested toward the end of the call and in an
earlier note (my) today.

It may be seen as a secondary issue, but I would really like the results =
of deliberations in Option B to be recorded in an I-D and not some issue =
tracker, wiki, or github repo. When I suggested this earlier in the =
thread you suggested this was actually Option A because there was a =
draft adopted to work on. That made me say I was happy with =
=E2=80=9CA+B=E2=80=9D.

=20

So, for the avoidance of doubt, I would like to see issues resolved one =
by one. That is Option B.

That=E2=80=99s fine.  What you, Brian, and Mike have argued for is =
Option B, which is to resolve matters issue by issue.  Noted.

Suppose we adopt an empty-ish draft (perhaps has background
and objectives, perhaps has initial list of open
issues/questions) and then follow option B recording each
decision in the draft as it comes to (rough) consensus?


To me this is a valid version of Option A, and we might even
employ it as a means to implement Option B.  It is also
possible that a draft would emerge that leaves open issues
which we do not have agreement.  That would give us a bit more
than a blank page.


While I have trouble seeing it as a version of Option A --or,
more specifically, I cannot support Option A in order to get to
it because of all of the other possible versions -- it is more
or less what I suggested toward the end of the call and in an
earlier note (my) today.

Eliot,

I don't think so, any more than I think it is really a variation
on Option A.  First, I think what I suggested --and what I think
Brian's efforts to create Venn diagrams and the like suggest --
is that "issue by issue" may be impossible (or a way to
foreclose some key topics) because of the ways in which issues
are interrelated.  Second, it is Option B only if Option B is
combined with a new I-D used as a base document that starts with
what we agree on now (if anything) and that is updated as
consensus evolves (as Adrian suggested a couple of hours ago but
was, I thought, clearly intended by my note and others) and
documents the rationale for each decision (as Carsten suggested
even more recently).

That idea has been largely consistent since the call.  Although
I suggested it on the call, it does not originate with me but
was a small consolidation of things said earlier and several
(IMO rather small and converging) variations have been suggested
since.  The very fact that you earlier suggested it was really a
variation on Option A and now suggest that it is really Option B
is more consistent with the several suggestions for "A+B", "C or
others", and, for at least some of us, "not ready" on the call
when you suggested a choice between A and B.  Of course, the
same situation implies that we could somehow all agree that the
suggestion is "really A" or "really B" but then start arguing
about what A or B "really" means, e.g., how we document the
decisions of Option B or whether Option A means starting with a
new document or whether we debate changes from existing ones.  I
don't think an apparent decision followed by that argument would
move things forward, YMMD.

I respect and appreciate your (and Brian Rosen's) desire to make
and show progress and drive things to consensus more quickly.
However, doing that by creating what some of us consider false
dichotomies and then apparently interpreting comments as
consistent with one or the other of those options does not seem
to me to be the way to do it. In a "normal" WG, I think it would
even result in appeals.

best,
   john

I understand your concern.  Let=E2=80=99s agree among ourselves that we =
will avoid such foreclosures in particular, and that we will work to =
understand such linkages.  If issues have to be taken together, let=E2=80=99=
s understand why.

I think that=E2=80=99s where we are heading, but we will see what others =
think.  If people do not object to that idea, we as a group can act on =
it.

Not quite.  Option A provides us a draft upon which to build.  B states =
rather categorically that we don=E2=80=99t yet have a starting point and =
need to develop one.  The chairs can facilitate either approach.  We =
personally like A because it advances the group's efforts, but we =
won=E2=80=99t/can=E2=80=99t force our views on the group.

Or at least an expert something or other.  But an expert would
be useful only if a WG decided to pay attention to someone who
would almost certain be perceived as an outsider (at least
initially).  Not only does the IETF have a poor track record in
that area [1], but I interpret several comments on this list,
including some of yours and Martin's, as preferring the wisdom
of the [IETF] crowd to expert input even when said crowd lacks
relevant expertise.  I don't think that is what you actually
intend (but maybe I'm wrong -- that is much of what I was trying
to clarify with Martin) but it certainly feels that way from
here [2].

Some of us have often been nervous about it.  The community
seems to be nervous about it when "show up" really means "hang
in after all those who disagree with the relevant leadership or
strong personalities have been driven off" [3].  So "ok" needs
to be somewhat qualified.

> You

First, while others have claimed that there was a bright line, I
don't think I have.   Indeed, I think some of the
publications-related issues I'm concerned about actually are
technical.  The distinction I'm trying to draw is between topics
that are clearly within the IETF's _Internet_ technical scope
and, perhaps as a definition of that, about which there is
fairly wide knowledge and understanding among IETF participants
including sufficient knowledge to understand when someone,
despite strong opinions, doesn't know what they are talking
about and topics that do not meet those criteria.

If you look back far enough, you will notice that I objected,
fairly loudly, to several of the provisions of the IETF
Administration LLC arrangements.  I was told that I couldn't
object to most of those, including what should have been small
but important terminology ones, because they were already fixed
by a legal document that could not be altered by IETF decisions.
When I raised objections to the way that document's approval had
been managed and the lack of an IETF consensus call before it
was set in stone, I was told it was too late (and some other
things).  At that point, it seemed to me there were two choices.
(i) Generate an appeal which would certainly be rejected on the
grounds that it was a done deal and/or that it fell within the
purview of LLC contracts and hence could not be appealed and
then, if I felt really obnoxious and destructive, hire an
attorney and try to figure out a way to challenge the LLC
registration.   Or (b) I could try to be constructive and
participate in the WG to see if things could be defined as well
as possible, even editing documents when that became
appropriate.  I'd hope IETF participants who find their
preferred positions blocked or in the rough in a fair consensus
call would behave in a similar fashion.  If you disagree and
think that my being consistent would require the first choice, I
guess we just need to disagree.

fundamental disagreements about the importance of stability and

Eliot,

Very helpful, thanks.  One comment on your distinction about
Option A below.

Ok.  Option A, as I understood it from the call, was to pick one
of the remaining/existing three documents or to somehow
consolidate, I believe< Martin's and Brian's and then pick from
it and Mike's and proceed from there.   I see enough differences
(in assumptions and fundamental preferences, not just details or
text) among the three that I'm uncomfortable starting with any
of them or, more generally, any document that treats any issues
that are still controversial or dependent on unresolved others
as settled.  

And that is why I've repeatedly suggested that you find an
editor, preferably a fairly neutral one, to create a new I-D.
Its initial version would record the issues on which we have
agreement --issues we can also agree are either independent of
others or where the whole cluster has been resolved.  It could
either stop there or catalog (without taking or implying any
conclusions) known controversial principles and/or specific
outstanding issues.  Then, as we sort things out, it would then
be revised to include additional decisions and the reasons for
them.  

Certainly that is, as you suggested, a variation on A.  Or maybe
it is a derivation from A. Certainly it uses a document as a
starting point rather than trying to sort out issues one at a
time without a document. 

It can also reasonably be interpreted as a variation on, or
derivation from, B because it assumes that we don't have a
starting point today and proposes a new draft, free of the
baggage and implied conclusions of the existing ones, as a first
step in developing a starting point.

But, unless you want to redefine A and then restate the question
(or similarly redefine B), it is not A (or B)... I am
indifferent as to whether we call it A' (or B') or D (in
deference to Mike's C).  In a way it is an A-B hybrid, so
perhaps it is Option AB or BA.

thanks,
    john

p.s. Having proposed it, I should perhaps volunteer to
edit/author the proposed new draft.  I might be willing to try
it if you can't find someone else.  But my positions on these
issues are quite strong (as I'm sure most of those reading this
have figured out and why I suggested the IAB not put me in the
position you are now in.  That would make it hard for me to edit
a document fairly and even harder for many people on this list
to believe it had been done fairly, creating even more
controversy.  That is why I have not volunteered yet and why I
think my doing that job would be a bad idea.

As far as I can tell, option A is at this point a pig in a poke.  We 
commit (for some meaning of commit) to adopting a draft.  Without 
knowing what the possible drafts are or how we will pick among the 
presumably several drafts?

It would be pretty hard to object to a skeletal drafts.  I can even see 
a good argument for the group owning the skeletal draft, so that the 
only things that get in are things on which there is rough consensus.

What I do not see is how that corresponds to either of the options you 
put on the table.

Just for completeness, I will state publicly what I said to you 
privately.  As far as I can tell, option A as origianlly stated is not 
even a procedurally valid option.  And I would object to efforts to 
force it.  As defined, it would require adopting a draft, by means 
defined by the chairs, even if there is no rough consensus on a single 
draft.  That is just wrong.  Even in the softwires case that comes 
closest to this, the WG knew what the alternatives were, and knew what 
the decision procedure was.

Yours,
Joel

I think we understand each other fairly well, and continuing to hash 
through our philosophical differences here isn't likely to move the 
other one in any meaningful way. I hope our dialog has helped others 
work though their own thoughts on the subject, and I look forward to 
hearing input from voices other than the two of us and the four draft 
authors on this specific topic, as I suspect that our various positions 
are well-expressed at this point.

One minor comment below, since your comment indicates to me that one of 
us did misunderstand the other about the distinction between community 
participation in technical and non-technical matters.

To be clear, I was referring to a message just barely upthread where you 
say:

To give a concrete example, in a recent AUTH48, the editor and I were faced with a decision between two reference forms:

This is obviously important, but minor.  We asked John for help in deciding in line with his role.

There are specifics of the case that we could go into, but I think there are abstract aspects of this that are relevant to what this group is debating.  Any answer is better than no answer, at least in the short term.  There are lots of cases like this in documents and it is easy to let little decisions get in the way.

What I would suggest is that these issues are logged in a public tracker.  Then a decision is made by the RPC so that the current document can proceed.  That decision can be logged also.

Then we have the usual issue management stuff: issues or patterns of issues that indicate a need for new systems or policies require action.  My guess is that most of this stuff will be logged and closed with a note.  In that way the log becomes a resource to help with other similar issues.  Some will result in tweaks to tools or procedures that are internal to the RPC. Some might result in changes to the style guide.  Most of that can be managed internally.  Of interest here though, some issues might indicate a need for strategic input.

The information in this log could be one input to a strategy process.

I'm not sure I agree. References go stale, so ISTM only
answers likely to be stable for the duration for which
the to-be-RFC is expected to be useful could rise to the
level of "better." There's an awful lot of judgement

So you have correctly identified the principle that allowed us to decide what the right answer was in this particular case.  But that too wasn't the problem: the editor knew that this was the principle, but wasn't sure in this specific case which of the two options best fit that principle.

So I disagree that this is about judgment.  This is about learning what the principles are (long term reference stability in this case) and applying them.  What I think an issue tracker is good at is: placing these cases in a record that can be examined.

People can always turn that into a piecemeal approach with a short-term focus.  That's not my experience with the people in this community though.

Hmmm.  From where I sit, an issue tracker is a lousy way to place things 
in a record for examination.  Issue trackers are great for issues that 
need to be tracked and resolved.

Yours,

As I said, I think that this is a minor point, but I've used several issue trackers that have become an important resource for making strategic decisions.  For instance, Mozilla tracks regressions and looks for areas that need additional focus on proactive treatment.  But you seem to be inferring from this that this is the only mechanism by which strategy would be informed.

As I said before Eliot asked me to expand on this point, I think that this is a minor point.  I would expect there to be other inputs to strategic decision-making that are more heavily relied upon.

I don't think that the answer to this question matters, except perhaps a=
s a consequence of other, more important decisions.  If the new structur=
e does not involve the IAB in an oversight position (or any other body w=
ith access to a stream for publication), and we see a need for entities =
there to publish RFCs, then we might reasonably conclude that a new stre=
am is a good way to solve that problem.

I would rather not focus on second-order questions when there are more f=
undamental disagreements to resolve.

Well, this reinforces John Klensin's point about multiple moving parts th=
at affect each other. Which in turn suggests to me that we do need a cura=
ted list of the questions, with an agreed indication of each one's import=
ance. I would agree that this one is not primary, but that doesn't mean i=
t's not on the list.

But I'm not sure what principle you are appealing to because, at
least if the reference is normative, I can see two separate
issues:

(1) There is a very long-standing publications principle that
references are references and should be kept integral.   To the
best of my knowledge, every style manual about formal
publications in English, on both sides of the pond, is
consistent about it.  It has often been ignored in the RFC
Series, but that doesn't make it less of a principle.  So,
although there are variations in layout,

Doe, J., "Flowers Bloom in the Spring", Chapter 5 of Boggs, P.,
_Events of the Year_, 1984, pp. 666-700,...

and

Dijkstra, E.W., "Go To Statement Considered Harmful",
_Communications of the ACM_, Vol. 11, No. 3, March 1968, pp.
147-148.

and 

Flanagan, H. and Ginoza, S., "RFC Style Guide", RFC 7322,
September 2014, Section 4.8.6.2, ...

work while, traditionally, running text containing

... the discussion of flowers blooming in [Doe1984] Chapter 6...
... [Dijkstra1968] page 147...
... discussion of URIs in RFCs [RFC7322] Section 4.8.6.2...
  or even
... discussion of URIs in RFCs [RFC7322, Section 4.8.6.2]...

is considered obnoxious or worse.

(2) For citations to documents that contain definitions or other
information that is necessary to understand the present
document, there has been a rule in the RFC Series since at least
the mid-1980s that both the reference and the target must be
stable, i.e., that one must be able to use the reference to find
the target _and_ the definitions (or whatever) in the target
must not change -- preferably not at all, ever, but at least not
in any way that might substantively change the meaning or
interpretation of the specification in the RFC.  For that
purpose, the syntax of the reference (including what information
is actually put in the reference and what information is placed
inline in the text as above) makes no difference -- it is the
principle that is important and, IMO, any change to that
principle definitely has strategic implications.

This second issue (obviously, I hope) goes to the questions of
what "archival" and "stable specification" mean and is hence one
that is intertwined with some others.

Now, which of those issues were you and John discussing?

thanks,
   john

+1 to this (Joel's) general sentiment. Discussion has made it clear that =
the distinction between A and B is not well-described. My sense is that =
the best way forward is to document the agreed-upon aspects as well as =
the open issues, and proceed (acknowledging that we still have some =
difficult - and intertwined - discussions ahead of us).

*How* we document those things isn't terribly important, but the obvious =
tools we have are a draft for the former, and an issues list for the =
latter.

Cheers,

I found the easiest way to answer that was to try. The answer is that I have no objection, but it may prove hard to separate the discussion points. Anyway, here's my attempt at three lists (generally agreed, primary issues, secondary issues).

# Generally Agreed

LLC legally & finanicially responsible for all contracts.

RFC production and publishing are service contract(s).

Streams have content control.

A separate body debates strategy.

This body must include stream representatives.

Strategy body meetings are public.

# Open Issues (primary)

There is a figurehead and thought leader of some kind.

This figurehead is a paid expert in technical publishing.

The expert is an advisor (RSA) vs an executive editor (RSE).

The strategy body is open to all (rough consensus WG model) or has defined membership (RSEB model).

The strategy body has neutral chairs vs the RSE chairs it.

The strategy body makes final decisions on strategy vs the RSE makes final decisions.

Oversight/appeals remains with the IAB vs moves to ISOC vs moves to RSEB.

# Open Issues (secondary)

Single contract for REP vs separate contracts for production (RPC) & publication.

Contract monitor(s) outside LLC?

Membership definition (RSEB model).

Decider for hiring RSA/RSE?

Search committee for hiring RSA/RSE?

There is a new, separate Editorial Stream.

What is strategic (pragmatic definition needed)?

Regards,
    Brian

Does anyone disagree with the list above?  Are there other things upon =
which we agree?

Putting aside what is primary and secondary, do people agree with the =
list above?  Are there other differences that need to be documented, or =
are there other topics that need to be raised that have not been (and =
this is not the last time I will ask that question)?

I this is two issues combined into one, and it would be helpful if the
group could make sure both are addressed:

1. Who can participate in the meetings
2. Who can observe the meetings

The second being "transparency"; using just open/closed terminology
tends to conflate both of these topics together and they should probably
be discussed independently.  (though if you have an
anyone-can-participate membership, the observation question mostly goes
away.  Mostly.)

My reading of it is that there is not necessarily a disagreement here, =

different proposed process for hiring an RSE, and while people disagree =

Jay,

I agree with one qualification, which may re-muddy the waters.
See below.

ARAICT, you have read those parts of the discussions correctly.
_However_ this is one of interaction issues.  I don't know how
many others are like me in this regard, but "how to recruit and
hire X" is not a question I choose to spend time thinking much
about, much less commenting on, before we have figured out
whether we want and RSE or RSA (and probably more than we have
today about what those roles mean).  Phrases like "cart before
the horse" come to mind.  Consequently, you've seen no comments
on the subject from me, and making inferences about agreement
about either process may be unjustified.  

The one piece of the subject about which I do have a strong
opinion is that I think it would be a terrible idea to chose
between RSE and RSA-type roles based on what we believe would be
the ease of recruiting and retaining one or the other.  AFAIK,
no one has suggested that, but it could easily be a result,
possibly unintentional, of concentrating on selection processes
rather than the relationship between the roles.

I'm not sure whether Brian's definition of "secondary" and mine
are the same, which is why I keep saying "intertwined",
"interconnected", and "mutually dependent", although I I believe
we agree that anything that helps us sequence our consideration
of these issues is a good idea and that this one comes after
deciding among RS* models.  But "not an issue at all" is going
too far for at least two reasons.  One is that people who have
been ignoring the "how we recruit and hire" question entirely
until we after the "RSE vs RSA" decision is made might then
review the plans for the chosen position and raise issues that
have not yet been identified, much less discussed.  The other is
that once that decision is made and we have agreed-upon scope
and job description statements, we review the
recruitment/selection plan and discover that the number of
people who would meet the requirements and be willing to apply
or or take the position would be somewhat more rare than the
typical unicorn or flying pig.  We would then have to figure out
something else, possibly revisiting already-closed decisions.
I think (and hope) the latter scenario is unlikely but not
unlikely enough to say "not an issue at all".

My mental model was that the "secondary" issues could not usefully
been resolved until after some or all of the "primary" issues
were already settled. That's much easier than "mutually dependent"
cases.

Certainly, but the question of whether the job is doable and
whether candidates exist is separable from defining who sits
in the search committee (IMHO).

Martin's draft says: "stream managers are expected to initiate discussion=
 or make proposals to the RFC Series Evolution program. To avoid conflict=
s of interest, it is expected that stream managers will be active partici=
pants - and not chairs - in this group." (My draft says essentially the s=
ame.) I think we both assume that the IETF will name an individual as str=
eam manager, since I doubt if any IETF Chair will want yet another job.

Yes, I think so, because draft-thomson doesn't have this and the other tw=

This text is sufficiently fuzzy that I think it's fine. What I don't think
we have agreement on -- and I don't think we should do -- is to give them
special privileges (e.g., be required for quorum, be the only people who
can propose things, have a veto, etc.)

Wfm, with the understanding that it is possible to reopen the
primary/settled ones if the secondary ones behind them lead us

Yes.  Who sits in the search committee is unrelated to whether
the job is doable given that candidates exist.  My point is (i)
that this group can, at best, reach a working hypothesis about
the existence of people who would meet the requirements and (ii)
even if potential candidates exist, the composition of the
search committee might determine whether or not they can be
found (and convinced to become candidates).

IMO, it would be good to nail that down (rather than assume it)
because any IETF Chair who would want more roles probably takes
us down the path toward royalty (in the sense of those kings
(and queens) we don't believe in).

If we define the role in such a way that we end up needing a wild rara

recruit.

I was assuming, perhaps incorrectly, that both the RSE and the
RSA model, however we define the details, would be a
sufficiently high-level position, requiring significant
professional skills, that anyone would would accept a
non-meaningful job would be someone we don't want.

But that takes us back to what I believe is the root of our
problems.  Few active IETF participants are expert in the fields
in which we would expect those people to have expertise.   Not
only does "not expert" mean a list of technical skills, it
includes enough contacts and experience to know who might be
available and what would entice them to come work with the IETF
community or to want to accept a position under an IETF LLC
contract.  Even when we went through the process that recruited
Heather, we contacted people who seemed to have the right
qualifications who didn't want anything to do with us.  So,
unless we set the requirements at, e.g., "was author on at least
one RFC" and/or "published an article related to networking
technology somewhere", we may not know whether we can actually
recruit for a role we define until we try it.

Hi -

I left this to sit for a while - possibly too long, but I wanted to see 
if anyone would look deeper than "new stream".  Mostly no.

Here's the deal.  In the end, what we appear to be arguing about is "who 
decides".  With Brian's note and a non answer from Martin what I have 
here is:

  * Mike - Authored by RSE with RSEB and community input (e.g. mostly
    paid work - other ), Approved for publication by RSEB, published in
    the Editorial Series.
  * Brian - Authored by anyone with perhaps some RSA input and guidance,
    consensus of the WG, consensus determined by the WG chairs, approved
    for publication by the ISE, published in the Independent stream.
  * Martin - Authored by anyone with little or no professional guidance,
    consensus of the program members, consensus determined by the IAB
    program chairs, approved for publication by the IAB, published in
    the IAB stream.

For Brian, that leads to the the questions of who appoints the WG 
chair(s) (specifically whether or not the ISOC appointed chair model is 
viable),  whether the IETF consensus model will work within the ISOC 
structure, and finally, how the current ISE model will interact with 
these documents.

For Martin, this appears to be exactly the model we had in the 
interregnum between Bob and Joyce stepping down, and before Heather was 
hired, except there's no professional supervision of the process (e.g. 
even though we had interim RSE's, they had their predecessors to lean 
on).   This model is pretty much  "the IAB decides" and I'm not sure 
that model will continue to work. Actually, I think we have a worked 
example where this isn't working.

For both of these I'm concerned about the WG chair appointments - they 
appear to be the weak spots as someone with Chair power can make or 
break a process.  The chair appointment process for both of these 
proposals is also concentrated in a single group.


I'd like to direct the groups attention to exactly who the authors were 
for the documents written about the RFC series since Bob stepped down.  
AFAICT, none of  these were the products of working groups, nor were 
random author submissions, but instead were documents internally 
generated by mostly the IAB, or folks that have been involved in the 
leadership, or more lately, by (a) design team(s) stood up by the RSE 
for a specific purpose.   My understanding is that most of those 
documents required at least some arm twisting (or invoking guilt) to get 
the editors to accept the work.

Going forward, I expect that similar documents will require similar 
levels of effort.  My thoughts about that are to make sure there's 
someone being paid to author those documents when they occur rather than 
depending on finding a) the right level of interest, b) the right level 
of expertise, and c) the actual availability of time to author those 
documents.

Last - let me tag one of EKRs hobby horses - closed groups.     In each 
of the publication models I've listed above, the ultimate authority for 
publication approval rests either with an individual, or with a closed 
group.  In Martin's model, that's the IAB.  In my model that's the RSEB. 
Both of these groups use (would use for the RSEB) a voting model for 
approving publication.  The main difference is that the RSEB would be 
selected for its proprietary interest in the publication process (e.g. 
the stream managers) or according to a publication heavy set of 
requirements submitted to the Nomcom.  In Martin's model, the chairs are 
selected by the IAB which treats such selections as personnel actions 
not subject to explanation, and the IAB exercises veto over the output 
of the group through its control of the IAB stream.

The IETF community has a lot of closed groups - IESG, IRSG, IAB, IETF 
Trust, LLC Board, and for that matter the model for research groups is 
that they MAY be closed. Oh yes, most of the IAB programs appear to be 
mostly closed. Decisions for publication in 3 of the 4 streams are made 
by closed groups.    For the IAB as much as 1/2 (guessing here - didn't 
count) of the IAB stream documents originate within the IAB itself and 
are not subject to mandatory external review prior to publication.   
Irrespective of where the documents originate, a closed group makes the 
final decisions on publication for all but the documents in the 
independent stream.

In the above, I join strongly with John's comments included below, 
especially with the inability to guarantee sufficient expertise on the 
IAB to cover these responsibilities.

Later, Mike

    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">Last - let me tag one of EKRs hobby
      horses - closed groups.     In each of the publication models I've
      listed above, the ultimate authority for publication approval
      rests either with an individual, or with a closed group.  In
      Martin's model, that's the IAB.  In my model that's the RSEB. 
      Both of these groups use (would use for the RSEB) a voting model
      for approving publication.  The main difference is that the RSEB
      would be selected for its proprietary interest in the publication
      process (e.g. the stream managers) or according to a publication
      heavy set of requirements submitted to the Nomcom.  In Martin's
      model, the chairs are selected by the IAB which treats such
      selections as personnel actions not subject to explanation, and
      the IAB exercises veto over the output of the group through its
      control of the IAB stream.<br>

    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">The IETF community has a lot of closed
      groups - IESG, IRSG, IAB, IETF Trust, LLC Board, and for that
      matter the model for research groups is that they MAY be closed.
      Oh yes, most of the IAB programs appear to be mostly closed.  
      Decisions for publication in 3 of the 4 streams are made by closed
      groups.    For the IAB as much as 1/2 (guessing here - didn't
      count) of the IAB stream documents originate within the IAB itself
      and are not subject to mandatory external review prior to
      publication.   Irrespective of where the documents originate, a
      closed group makes the final decisions on publication for all but
      the documents in the independent stream.</div>

I agree, but it was a pragmatic choice because no other
suitable stream existed (as Heather said on a number of
occasions in my hearing). Indeed, 20+ years ago such documents
were simply published by the RFC Editor on their own account
(e.g. RFC825, RFC1111, RFC1543, RFC2223) so this stream would
be a revival of that system.

      <pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">
Yes and no... and that takes us back to interactions among
different questions.  Back when it was "simply published...",
the RFC Editor didn't need to ask anyone for approval.   For
better or worse, there is no analogy for that in the Stream
model because, while I can't remember an explicit rule, authors
approving their own documents is clearly considered to be in bad
taste.  The Independent Stream comes closest, but were the
person who holds the ISE role to write a document and then
publish it without consulting anyone else, I assume we'd be
fairly unhappy. 

I do remember discussing whether the RSE should be allowed to
publish documents directly in the RFC 4844 timeframe but don't
remember the reasons why a "no" decision was made -- Joel or
others might remember.  I suspect it was because the IAB
considered review and approval to be part of its oversight
responsibility.  

Sometimes, the IAB has basically been passive, doing a quick
review, maybe asking for community comment, and then going ahead
and publishing.  Other times, it has acted as if those really
were its documents and they should not be published without
strong IAB consensus (whether the IAB actually had the relevant
expertise or not).  I suggest that, if we think what got us here
was a result of the IAB intervening inappropriately, then having
the IAB as document approver is not a wildly good idea.  If the
RSE-replacement is going to be an employee or contractor of a
contractor or just an advisor, it is less clear to me why we
need such a stream... at least unless we can set (and keep to)
rather high requirements for expertise in whatever WG or
committee is actually running the show.

best,
    john

The ISE in general has a lower bar, but isn't s/he essentially a closed 
group of one?

No. You are overlooking the ISEB (Independent Series Editorial Board).
True, the ISE's decision is final, but I've been an ISEB member for
quite a few years, and the Editor has always consulted the Board
whenever there was a tricky issue, and used it as a (non exclusive)
source of reviewers.

A difference compared to the IETF review process is that it more
closely resembles an academic peer review process. The reviews
aren't published, for example. But they usually aren't blinded, either
(i.e. the authors usually know who the reviewers are).

Getting back to Mike's message:

My draft doesn't say that ("ISE"), but leaves it rather open. In fact I t=
hink this stream should be owned by what I called the RSAWG, so the RSAWG=
 chairs would declare consensus to publish. I don't think that this would=
 be a busy stream, except for an initial bunch of documents.

So this is a choice of the ISE to seek commentary, not a requirement of 
the process.  Which in the end reduces to the ISE making the decision, 
regardless of how he seeks to make that decision.  The fact that Adrian 
is smart enough to pay attention to his board, does not actually change 
the documented process.

Hi Brian - your draft didn't say that, but your email did responding to 
my question about an editorial stream:  (if not the Editorial stream, 
then where?):

Apologies if I mis-represented anything.

WRT to each of the current streams, there's either a body determines by 
vote that a document is ready for publication in the stream, or the ISE 
does (with whatever consultation he in his judgement determines is 
necessary).


So digging down a bit on your last comment and assuming an Editorial 
Stream (whatever its called) - you think that the WG (or the loud voices 
therein) would direct for publication any document they felt was ready 
for publication, and that decision  (of agreement to publish) would be 
made by the WG chairs.   There would be no further decision points?

Logically it looks like you've got a Editorial stream document 
production group of N people and a voting (sort of) RSEB consisting of 
the WG chairs actually deciding whether the documents get published.   
And from your previous comments do I understand that the 4 other stream 
editors would be treated the same as any other participant except that 
their comments may be given heavier weight (or ignored for that matter) 
during the discussion period even if one of their stream might be more 
affected than another?

We've noted before that its relatively common to get WGs into forms of 
consensus paralysis on trying to get out documents, and that the IAB and 
IESG have at various times completely avoided the WG model, either 
self-editing/self-publishing or creating relatively closed design teams 
to make progress.   They've invoked that model also on the "boring" 
where the documents needed to get done, but there was no one all that 
interested in doing them as part of their day job.    If we choose an 
open group model, I believe that a few nuclear options for such groups 
need to be incorporated to ensure progress when necessary.   That seems 
anathema to the IETF model, but we've done similar things to complete 
the meta tasks of legally organizing ourselves. Alternately, a closed 
body vote to publish like we have for all the other streams is a worked 
example.


Thanks for the comments - Mike

A difference compared to the IETF review process is that it more
closely resembles an academic peer review process. The reviews
aren't published, for example. But they usually aren't blinded, either
(i.e. the authors usually know who the reviewers are).

Getting back to Mike's message:

      <pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">
My draft doesn't say that ("ISE"), but leaves it rather open. In fact I think this stream should be owned by what I called the RSAWG, so the RSAWG chairs would declare consensus to publish. I don't think that this would be a busy stream, except for an initial bunch of documents.

    <p>Hi Brian - your draft didn't say that, but your email did
      responding to my question about an editorial stream:  (if not the
      Editorial stream, then where?):</p>
    <p>
      <blockquote type="cite">
        <pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">Again, it's model-dependent. In draft-thomson, it's clearly the IAB stream as
today. In the other two models, we are presumably left with the Independent
stream</pre>

      <br>
      Apologies if I mis-represented anything.  <br>
    </p>
    <p>WRT to each of the current streams, there's either a body
      determines by vote that a document is ready for publication in the
      stream, or the ISE does (with whatever consultation he in his
      judgement determines is necessary).   <br>
    </p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>So digging down a bit on your last comment and assuming an
      Editorial Stream (whatever its called) - you think that the WG (or
      the loud voices therein) would direct for publication any document
      they felt was ready for publication, and that decision  (of
      agreement to publish) would be made by the WG chairs.   There
      would be no further decision points?</p>
    <p>Logically it looks like you've got a Editorial stream document
      production group of N people and a voting (sort of) RSEB
      consisting of the WG chairs actually deciding whether the
      documents get published.   And from your previous comments do I
      understand that the 4 other stream editors would be treated the
      same as any other participant except that their comments may be
      given heavier weight (or ignored for that matter) during the
      discussion period even if one of their stream might be more
      affected than another?</p>
    <p>We've noted before that its relatively common to get WGs into
      forms of consensus paralysis on trying to get out documents, and
      that the IAB and IESG have at various times completely avoided the
      WG model, either self-editing/self-publishing or creating
      relatively closed design teams to make progress.   They've invoked
      that model also on the "boring" where the documents needed to get
      done, but there was no one all that interested in doing them as
      part of their day job.    If we choose an open group model, I
      believe that a few nuclear options for such groups need to be
      incorporated to ensure progress when necessary.   That seems
      anathema to the IETF model, but we've done similar things to
      complete the meta tasks of legally organizing ourselves. 
      Alternately, a closed body vote to publish like we have for all
      the other streams is a worked example.</p>

No, you're correct, I wrote that, but if I'm not mistaken it was written
under the hypothesis of no fifth stream being created. I prefer adding
a new stream.

Correct; it would be a rough consensus decision.

The group (in my model and I think Martin's too) is whoever chooses to sh=

 (in my model only). No presidents or kings, however. The decision proces=

Sometimes the IETF process gets stuck on an insoluble disagreement, and w=

it at https://github.com/intarchboard/rfced-future/issues =
<https://github.com/intarchboard/rfced-future/issues>.  Please note, we =
will want to lead with the issues that Brian called =E2=80=9Cprimary=E2=80=
=9D, even if they are not so marked in the tracker.    There is no =
point, for instance, in trying to decide who hires an RSA/RSE if the =
group decides not to have one of those.

We recognize that there may be linkages between some issues.  If you =
find you need to bring one issue in when discussing another, please =
explain the linkage.

If you find yourself in the rough on an issue, please consider what =
conditions/safeguards/or palatable alternatives would get us to the =
point where we can resolve the matter.  Put another way, we are all =
responsible for finding a consensus that people can live with, even if =
it=E2=80=99s not your first choice.

Your humble chairs

So, we think we have created the issues list, and we would like to start =
on one of the key questions that we believe doesn=E2=80=99t depend on =
other decisions.

Is there a figurehead/thought leader, regardless of what the position is =

have? =20
This is: https://github.com/intarchboard/rfced-future/issues/10 =

Please send your thoughts on this subject.  We would actually appreciate =
+1s as we go through this process so we can try to gauge if we have any =
form of consensus.

We are basically looking for a yes/no.  Your opinions on secondary =
issues if you think there is such a position are, as always, welcome, =
but we are really trying at this point to see if we have consensus one =
way or another on if there is such a role.  This is an opportunity for =
those who haven=E2=80=99t spoken up yet to weigh in.

Yes, I think that it is important that we have such a person.

Yours,
Joel

PS: While it is always tempting to argue about the way questions are 
posed, at this point I think you are doing as well as it is possible to 
make progress.  So lets take the question as you posed it.

I give you a strong =E2=80=9CYes, but.=E2=80=9D

=20

1.	The responses so far have majored on =E2=80=9Cwe need a (paid) =
professional=E2=80=9D. While I agree with that point, I don=E2=80=99t =
believe it was the question asked in the email or on github.
2.	I also agree with the question as phrased, but I=E2=80=99d note that =
the title of the role is important both for recruiting (small point) and =
for how the person is perceived and heard in the wider community (larger =
point). So don=E2=80=99t neglect the name of the position.

Subject: [Rfced-future] First Topic for Discussion: Thought Leader

=20

So, we think we have created the issues list, and we would like to start =
on one of the key questions that we believe doesn=E2=80=99t depend on =
other decisions.

=20

Is there a figurehead/thought leader, regardless of what the position is =
called, how they are selected, who they report to, and what duties they =
have? =20

This is: https://github.com/intarchboard/rfced-future/issues/10

=20

Please send your thoughts on this subject.  We would actually appreciate =
+1s as we go through this process so we can try to gauge if we have any =
form of consensus.

=20

We are basically looking for a yes/no.  Your opinions on secondary =
issues if you think there is such a position are, as always, welcome, =
but we are really trying at this point to see if we have consensus one =
way or another on if there is such a role.  This is an opportunity for =
those who haven=E2=80=99t spoken up yet to weigh in.

=20

Brian

Changing the subject line for the benefit of the chairs, since this 
isn't really the question they asked.

If we're going to paint this particular bike shed right now and address 
Adrian's "larger point" of how the community perceives this role, then I 
think it would be ill-advised to include the word "Editor" anywhere in 
its description. I understand that this is a term of art used by the 
literary community, but I also assert (based on a huge number of 
conversations over the years) that its use in an engineering community 
lends the inaccurate impression that the role involves the literal 
(copy) editing of documents, which isn't the case. I think a 
misunderstanding by the community of the role has substantially 
complicated the relationship between the RSE and (at least) the IETF in 
the past. I would strongly suggest that we select a name that doesn't 
perpetuate this situation.

(n.b.: I'm explicitly not weighing in on the question asked by the 
chairs, because I'm still unsure about the best answer. I understand the 
arguments for; while, at the same time, the IETF has a long history of 
Thought Leaders stepping up from the community to lead discussions and 
author documents without having a specific designation or contract in 
place for them to do so, and then stepping back down and leaving room 
for the next Thought Leader who has fresh ideas to express. I think 
there's value to both approaches.)

I am not sure that we need "a thought leader" for providing the
publication expertise. I observe that changes in the series tend to be
big steps, such as changes in formats, or changes in reference methods.
I could easily see hiring publication experts to produce an audit and
explain all the wrongness of our ways, and then have a working group
drive for consensus on solutions. That would not require having a
permanent expert position.
