Hi Martin,

Martin and all,

Let us put aside blocks for the moment, assuming that we are likely to =
find agreement that a block can be overridden.  That assumption is worth =
discussing, of course.  I=E2=80=99ve tried to put this into tabular form =
so that people have a feel for what we=E2=80=99re talking about:



If the RSE does not have a vote, but convinces another stream manager to =
block, the case we seem most worried about, then it takes three stream =
managers to override.  If the RSE does have a vote and also convinces a =
stream manager to join, it still requires three stream managers to =
override, and so there is no difference.

If on the other hand, the block has to be sustained by a vote, then =
there is a difference.  In this case, if the RSE has a vote, there needs =
to be agreement of two steam managers to sustain.  If the RSE doesn=E2=80=99=
t have a vote then three stream managers are needed to sustain.

And if two votes are required to block rather than a majority and the =
RSE has no vote, this means that all four stream managers would have to =
vote to override the RSE.

Thus the voting rules are important to understand.  Obviously I=E2=80=99ve=
 only delved into one scenario, and there are others.  And there are of =
course other voting rules.  One challenge here is to determine which is =
the dog and which is the tail: Is it important to be respect streams so =
that damage cannot occur?  Is it important to support the will of the =
WG?  And of course, the parameters of why one can vote no matter.

Eliot

Maybe I should have been clearer.  What I was talking about was an appro=
val process that only really consisted of testing whether the approval b=
ody blocked the proposal.  I think that Russ phrased this as "two approv=
als and no block positions".

That would allow for abstention of two streams.  I honestly don't think =
that the number of approvals matters very much.  You just need to avoid =
approving proposals that are frivolous or that lack genuine interest.  I=
 have no real position on whether the RSx should be allowed to engage in=
 an approval process, because I don't think that it matters all that muc=
h.

My interest is in what blocking looks like and how an attempt to block m=
ight be overturned - if that is possible.

With a "voting" RSx, you have to decide a) whether the RSx can block, b)=
 whether to automatically override a single block position, and c) what =
conditions overriding the block would need.

Without distinguishing RSx from stream manager roles, sensible values fo=
r N_block are 1 or 2.  But I would argue that overturning 2 block positi=
ons (which might represent 2 whole streams out of four) from a simple ma=
jority makes light of those taking block positions.  So I'm going to sug=
gest that it doesn't make sense to allow for 2 block positions to be ove=
rturned, only 1 at most.  If there were significantly more streams invol=
ved, maybe 2 would make sense, but we aren't there.

My other point is that the basis on which the RSx would be blocking are =
not very clear.  If you distinguish RSx from stream managers and only al=
low stream managers to block, that might be better, but then you have th=
e same problem as above.  You could add the RSx to any vote to overturn =
a block, but the real effect there is a new choice between 3/5 to overtu=
rn and 4/5 to overturn.

Note that in all cases, the individual (stream manager or RSx) were invo=
lved in the discussions and were found by the chairs to have been heard =
and their concerns addressed, even if they did not necessarily agree wit=
h that.  They are then exercising their unique option to formalize their=
 objections.

For stream managers, who answer to their stream, I would expect their in=
tentions to be clearly communicated and their block position only to occ=
ur after wide consultation (would would include the RSx, but also the IR=
SG/IESG/IAB/ISEB and various mailing lists as appropriate).  Ultimately,=
 a stream manager has a system by which they are held accountable and I =
would expect that to be effective.

Right. What the table I generated shows is that if you go with =E2=80=9C2 =

I think there are two aspects about which your table seems to be misleading.

First, and most important, I want the structure to be robust if we add 
or remove a stream.  Focusing on the exact number obscures that.

Secondly, whether a person has a formal say in the decision (whether we 
call that a vote or a requirement for consensus, or a DISCUSS position 
doesn't matter) or does not have such a formal say inevitably affects 
the interaction with the rest of the body.  I think it is important for 
the way I at least want the RSE/A viewed that they have the same kind of 
say that the stream managers have.

Yours,
Joel

I fully agree that the RFC Series Editor (or what we're going to call 
them) isn't too suited for formal marketing research that takes a 
serious amount of time.

But I think the RFC Series Editor is important when it comes to the 
voice of the stakeholders, in particular the "silent consumers" of RFC. 
The stream managers' backgrounds to first approximations all come from 
the writing side of the process, at least originally more interested in 
getting a new protocol to paper than in whether the series reaches the 
readership at large in the right way and serves them well. On the way to 
becoming a stream manager, the perspective will change somewhat, but 
probably only somewhat. For the participants in the WG, on average they 
will be even closer to the writers' side.

The RFC Series Editor, if we find the right person, is by their 
expertise attuned to the needs of both readers and writers. Even if this 
goes only so far as to have "how does this affect our potential 
consumers" on a checklist.

Regards,   Martin.

B.T.W.: I also agree that it may not be the best idea to spend a ton of 
money on marketing research. If we didn't do the right thing for the 
past 50 years, the RFC series wouldn't be in the position that we are 
now, and if we move forward steadily (but not too fast), we should be 
able to stay where we are or improve.

Exactly.

Why are we in trouble? Because the previous RSE felt they were not being
treated as a colleague with relevant expertise but as a hired hand.
The one mistake to avoid above all is re-creating that situation.

I think we shouldn't use the word "vote" at all, nor "block". The
approving body rule should be: consensus. If that means long arguments
to clear a "discuss" by any member, so be it. It's not as though
this body will be reviewing a very large number of documents.

Hi everyone,

First, the chairs want to again thank Eric for bringing some text to the =
discussion.  =46rom our perspective, there is a lot on which we may =
agree, and we would like to test consensus on some of the points, =
knowing that discussion is ongoing on other aspects.

Do people agree that the stream managers are part of the approval body?
Do people agree that process proposals flow from the WG to the approval =
body?
Do people agree that the grounds for rejection of a proposal include =
damage to a stream?
Do people agree that any objections must be returned to the WG for =
discussion?
Do people agree that if the WG still wants to press forward, two =
objections would still halt approval?
Do people agree that damage to a stream would include long term =
strategic damage to the series?

Not on this list is whether the RSx is part of the approval body.  To =
summarize where we are there, one group of people believe that it is =
important for the RSx to be a voting member, either because that person =
would represent those not otherwise represented (and yes, we=E2=80=99ve =
had some back and forth about that), while another group of people feel =
strongly that the RSx not be a voting member. The chairs believe this is =
a good topic for our upcoming meeting.

What is important: proponents of each position (and perhaps there are =
many different positions) should be prepared to present the principles =
that they are arguing for.  For each person arguing a particular =
position, we ask that you also be prepared to identify what =
accommodations or model changes would accommodate you if you couldn=E2=80=99=
t get your first choice.  We=E2=80=99ve some of this, and we are hoping =
to see more, so that people can find common ground.

Brian and Eliot

Hi Brian and Eliot.

=20

Thanks for this.

=20

Yes, but=E2=80=A6 =F0=9F=98=8A

=20

Your list is nicely phrased as things I can agree with, but they are not =
limiting statements. So,

> Do people agree that the stream managers are part of the approval =
body?

I agree, but I=E2=80=99d be interested to know who else is there, and =
whether those others can also object.

> Do people agree that process proposals flow from the WG to the =
approval body?

I agree, and I suspect you mean to say that proposals originating in the =
approval body (I think they are capable of original thought) must flow =
into the WG.

> Do people agree that the grounds for rejection of a proposal include =
damage to a stream?

Certainly that is one of the reasons. I wonder what other grounds are =
considered.

> Do people agree that any objections must be returned to the WG for =
discussion?

I think that one is unavoidable in that the WG will discuss what the WG =
discusses. But maybe, the objection must be clearly set out and the =
objector must make themselves available to discuss the objection.

> Do people agree that if the WG still wants to press forward, two =
objections would still halt approval?

I agree that two objections would halt approval. But I also think that =
one objection would halt approval. It would not be acceptable, in my =
opinion, for the WG and the approval body to shut down the IAB stream =
against the opinion of the manager of the IAB stream (nominally the =
chair of the IAB).

> Do people agree that damage to a stream would include long term =
strategic damage to the series?

I agree. I think that many other things might be uncovered as damage to =
a stream. I am not sure that citing an example that is pretty much the =
most significant damage to a stream is a useful thing to do. It might be =
better to qualify the grounds for objection as =E2=80=9Csignificant =
damage to the stream=E2=80=9D although that, too, is a subjective thing =
so would be better accompanied by examples of non-grounds for objection.

This could be compared to the IESG=E2=80=99s Discuss criteria list [1] =
that is mainly a list of reasons why not to enter a Discuss, and [2] =
that is a fuller list of why and why not to Discuss, but it must be =
remembered that those references did not exist ab initio, they were =
developed over time and with experience of what is and is not =
reasonable. I caution against trying to define our list of reasons to =
object and not object with any precision before we have running code.

Cheers,

Adrian

My .02 -

I agree that the RSA/E would have some scope to do this.=20

I don't think it should rest completely on their shoulders; our =
community may have diversity issues, but the folks here are somewhat =
representative of many of those who are the audience.

In particular, our documents are very often used by developers of =
implementations. Implementers do participate in the IETF (at least in =
some WGs), but they may hesitate to participate in our process-oriented =
discussions (whether they're about RFC formats or not) because of the =
overhead of wading in and the obscurity of how to do so. Improving both =
would go a long way towards getting good feedback from them.

Our documents are also used by non-developer organisations interested in =
the Internet; e.g., civil society advocates. Again, they have some voice =
in the IETF, and we should make sure to give them a path to being heard. =
Having a WG is a good first step; establishing newcomer-friendly =
policies, documentation and communication channels are excellent =
improvement.=20

As part of that, I think the RSA/E should be explicitly responsible for =
updating the woefully out-of-date RFC Editor web site, and making it =
more user-oriented. However, that update should be guided and helped by =
the community.

Those improvements would also benefit "outside" parties who are =
impacted. Adrian, you mention regulators. Considering that they're =
already dealing with a wide variety of inputs, I strongly suspect that =
regulators will take documents in whatever form we publish them, and =
account for any unusual aspects when handling them. Taking their needs =
into account is good, but I doubt if we'll be able to establish =
concretely what those needs are, beyond very generic things (e.g., =
well-defined identifiers for document revisions). Of course, regulators =
are likely to have very specific needs or asks for what the documents =
*contain*, but that's not of concern in this discussion.

Cheers,

I knew, I just knew it as I typed it, that if I gave an example of a class
of user that is not frequently present in our working meetings or on our
mailing lists, someone would choose to debate that example rather than the
wider topic.

Mark rightly notes that some non-developer organisations that consume RFCs
have some voice in the IETF. He also notes that the way we conduct business
may inhibit participation. And this cuts somewhat to my concern, but not
completely.

I am worried that the way we in the IETF build and assess consensus is not
well suited to making decisions about the RFC series in a "working group"
because such a group is likely to be heavily populated by just one section
of the community (the regular IETFer) so that any counter opinions (if,
indeed, they are expressed at all) will be considered minor voices or in the
rough.

So it is good to hear some thoughts that the RSA/E would have some
responsibility for considering other voices and bringing their needs and
aspirations to the table. But it doesn't cut much ice with me to hear that
"the folks here are somewhat representative of many of those who are the
audience", in fact it worries we somewhat because it sounds similar to the
way silent majorities are often excluded by those in power (I do not accuse
anyone here present of such an intention).

Now, suppose the RSA/E has the responsibility and expresses a concern to the
WG. I know we all like to think ourselves reasonable people, and I suppose
we like to hope that we will pass the baton on to similarly reasonable
people, but suppose that the WG pushes ahead anyway disregarding the RSA/E's
concerns? What then?

- Is the RSA/E in the approval group to let them know the problems?
- Can a stream manager block the change that is not a direct harm to their
stream?
- Can the RSA/E somehow make the WG think again?

Cheers,
Adrian

My .02 -

I agree that the RSA/E would have some scope to do this. 

I don't think it should rest completely on their shoulders; our community
may have diversity issues, but the folks here are somewhat representative of
many of those who are the audience.

In particular, our documents are very often used by developers of
implementations. Implementers do participate in the IETF (at least in some
WGs), but they may hesitate to participate in our process-oriented
discussions (whether they're about RFC formats or not) because of the
overhead of wading in and the obscurity of how to do so. Improving both
would go a long way towards getting good feedback from them.

Our documents are also used by non-developer organisations interested in the
Internet; e.g., civil society advocates. Again, they have some voice in the
IETF, and we should make sure to give them a path to being heard. Having a
WG is a good first step; establishing newcomer-friendly policies,
documentation and communication channels are excellent improvement. 

As part of that, I think the RSA/E should be explicitly responsible for
updating the woefully out-of-date RFC Editor web site, and making it more
user-oriented. However, that update should be guided and helped by the
community.

Those improvements would also benefit "outside" parties who are impacted.
Adrian, you mention regulators. Considering that they're already dealing
with a wide variety of inputs, I strongly suspect that regulators will take
documents in whatever form we publish them, and account for any unusual
aspects when handling them. Taking their needs into account is good, but I
doubt if we'll be able to establish concretely what those needs are, beyond
very generic things (e.g., well-defined identifiers for document revisions).
Of course, regulators are likely to have very specific needs or asks for
what the documents *contain*, but that's not of concern in this discussion.

Cheers,

No. I think we should require consensus, rather than defining voting rule=

Suppose the vote was 4:1 in favour of scrapping the normative/informative=

Why ask that? The bullet above does not state that damage to a stream is =
the *only* ground for objection. Certainly, damage to the series as a who=
le must be a ground for objection, but that isn't what you are asking.

I consider that to be essential. The stream managers are not omniscient.

Yes. Especially if they think it is harmful to the series as a whole.

Yes, if (and only if) the RSA/E can also prevent consensus in the approval group. But that's a "reserve power" that will never be needed if the WG functions as it's supposed to, which includes listening to the RSA/E.

I find myself really liking the turn this discussion took.  That is, I l=
ike that we are explicitly considering the biases inherent in the design=
s we're considering and how to counteract them.

This my be my own lack of knowledge, but I'm hearing an assumption here,=
 and I want to repeat what I'm hearing out loud to see if it makes sense=
 to others.  It doesn't add up for me.

Are we assuming that the RSA/E has expertise in outreach to these divers=
e communities of interest?

Is this something that expertise in technical publication naturally come=
s with?  Which community or communities are then naturally represented?

Effective representation is something we struggle with everywhere.  But =
I can give an example from an adjacent community.  When we discuss wheth=
er web API Foo is good for the web, one of the questions we try to under=
stand is whether the web developer community would benefit.  (Even there=
, we routinely fail to capture the diversity of that community, usually =
only getting input from large sites.)  But browser-makers in particular =
do spend non-trivial time and effort in gathering this input, and we als=
o benefit from the experience of people in that community who aren't beh=
olden to a browser-maker also.  But we do not assume that those people a=
lso represent the interests of communities in which they have not spent =
that time; though these are paid professionals with deep expertise, that=
 expertise is narrow.  And the conclusions reached on the basis of web d=
eveloper feedback can, on some matters, demonstrate a bias against other=
 stakeholder interests (certain user communities, for instance).

In the IETF, we have experience with people connected to various communi=
ties that interact with the work we do.  People who implement, deploy, o=
perate, purchase, and so forth.  As Mark points out, we are now lucky en=
ough to sometimes have people participate from communities that study th=
e effect of our decisions on people and societies.  But my experience is=
 that the community of interest speaking is generally understood, usuall=
y as a result of getting to know the person speaking a little.

Of course no single person speaks for any community because no community=
 is ever so uniform as to have precisely one position on just about any =
subject.  And any who claim to speak for a community can only do so thro=
ugh the filter of their own biases.  Again, getting to know someone to b=
etter understand those biases is also part of how we manage that.

I use the long anecdote (rant?) to highlight that if we are looking for =
someone to convey a particular viewpoint, we need to understand what we'=
re looking for.  If publication expertise is truly alien to us engineer-=
y folks, I don't think that we have much hope of doing anything except i=
nvest the RSA/E with power that leaves the series at the mercy of the LL=
C hiring process.  But, like the lawyer example, I think that we can lea=
rn to recognize the shape of our lack of knowledge.  To do that, maybe s=
omeone can define the undefinable and tell me which community we might e=
xpect a publication expert to be able to represent.

Well, obviously people don't need to agree but the intent of my proposal
was to sharply limit the grounds on which the approval body could object to
documents.

Taking a step back from the details one could imagine people on these
bodies as having two roles:

- Representing their equities (i.e., what is good for their streams)
- Representing their own views of what's good for the series regardless of
whether it affected their streams.

I believe that we should attempt to limit the role of the approval body as
much as possible to the former category. The reason for this is that the WG
has inherent community legitimacy, whereas the stream managers does not
(primarily because of how they are selected but also because of the
interests they represent). I don't see any particular reason why the
opinion of the stream managers should override the opinion of the WG on
matters that don't directly threaten their streams.

I suspect that this is another example of an issue where we actually have
disagreement about principles, and hence a good topic for the live
discussion.

Yes, but not exclusively.  The approval body should be able to originate 
documents (some model as IAB and IESG streams).  I also think that there 
may be non-WG submissions  (e.g. similar to AD sponsored) that may be 
appropriate to be approved in the editorial stream.  E.g. informative 
documents that apply to general publication issues.

I think we actually just need to leave the approval body to figure out 
what gets rejected.   I think this is one only one of the grounds. 
Others include quality, relevance and community need (not just WG 
consensus).

I don't know what that actually does.   Rejected documents (not 
originating in the approval body) that don't get approved are in the 
state that all non approved documents end up in and the WG or authors 
can take whatever actions they want including revising and 
resubmitting.  I'd say instead that rejections from the approval body 
need a cover letter of some sort similar to how feedback works in the 
other streams and leave it at that.

The approval body approves.  Failure to approve is not an objection, its 
a rejection - those words mean different things.   I don't have any 
problem with the WG or authors doing the try try again thing - but I'd 
hope the WG chairs would recognize futility when they see it.

The RSE/A is going to get some sort of veto with respect to anything 
within their contractual responsibilities - e.g. if a document purports 
to tell the RSE/A *how* to do something, and that something implicates 
the RSE/A's duties to provide [insert legalese here], the RSE will be 
perfectly within their rights to say "interesting document, but I'm not 
doing that".  That's just a fact.  A "bad" document that gets approved 
over the RSE's objections may  end up with an argument between the RSE 
and the LLC, or with the RSE terminating their contract or other actions.

Apologies for top posting:

Martin,

I think bringing in "representation" isn't a good idea. It's
not a thing we do, nor process well. I think the main reason
for that (and a good reason) is that we don't have an
elector's register nor members.

I do agree with Brian that having the RSE be the person who
we hope can best consider viewpoints and interests (related
to the RFC series) that are not otherwise represented is a
good idea. But that doesn't mean the RSE is "representing"
anyone, nor IMO should it.

Cheers,
S.

Hmmm.   This seems to have an assumption that the WG is inherently 
presumed to be correct.

As far as I know, even the IETF technical process does not have that 
assumption.  If IESG members raise legitimate technical technical 
issues, the WG is required to address them.  And ADs are not restricted 
to their own area to raise such issues.

Yours,
Joel

As I said earlier, I don't think it's "presumed to be correct", but rather
"is the most legitimate representative of the community". We don't have an
oracle of what's correct or not, so at the end of the day, someone/some
group has to decide. I believe in this case that authority is best vested
in the WG.

Right. I do not think that structure is serving us particularly well on the
IESG and I think it will serve even less well here, given the proposed
constitution of this body.

You refer to "the proposed constitution of the body" in your response 
below.  I presume that refers to the constitution of teh approval body.
I believe I have stated that in my view the concern is the fact that, 
like the IETF, there is no control on (or means to ensure participation 
from needed parties) in the constitution of the working group.  Given 
the flakiness I have seen from working groups that really did (in most 
regards) know what they are doing, I am concerned if we do not create 
some form of insurance / ensurance.

Yes, this is basically teh same reason that I have objected to 
streamlining proposals in the past that would have removed most of the 
IESG's grounds for objecting to IETF documents.  I suspect this is an 
area where we have very basic disagreements.

Yours,
Joel

>=20

Nor need they be.  Our goal is simply to understand where there is =
agreement and where there is more work to be done.

I like Martin's question:

> Are we assuming that the RSA/E has expertise in outreach to these diverse
communities of interest?

I think Joel captured most of the important points.

But:
This is not solely about outreach, it is also about experience in
publication for diverse communities.

And:
It is also also about who the "champion" will be when it is not the primary
interest of any of the other parties (WG, approval group) to know or care
about the diverse communities. Who is the stuckee for this?

Adrian

Hi,
	A big +1 to Joel's points, and I'd like to "yes, and", and =
address a point from Martin's last paragraph. I've never viewed the RSE =
as a role we were "at the mercy" of; no more so than we are at the mercy =
of the IAB, for example. Given the actions that have occurred over the =
last 2 years, I very much support the idea of having the independent RSE =
role, with less of a touch from the IAB. I also agree with Martin that =
we need to define what we want, and I think we've learned from the first =
time we documented the job description of the RSE. We can - and should - =
do better and improve that description this time through. My hope is, if =
we agree in the RSE role as an independent, publishing-expertise-savvy =
role, that we'll crisply define the skills we need, the skills we want, =
and outline the job description accordingly.

Thanks,
Sarah

There might be value in trying to describe this "broad range". (Pardon
me if that's been done already.)

Earlier in the thread, Mark Nottingham said: "our documents are very
often used by developers of implementations."

It strikes me that this is the *primary* use of our documents.

Although this perspective might be seen as simplistic, I've always felt
that my core task as an RFC author is to help design a sensible protocol
and document it as clearly and accurately as possible so that engineers
can write interoperable code.

This might imply a different vision of "technical publishing" than what
might come to mind if we're comparing the RFC series to, say, Physical
Review or The Lancet.

Yes, we have are other "customers" - civil society groups, regulators,
patent lawyers, historians and sociologists of technology, etc. - but if
engineers weren't using RFCs to write code and deploy services used by
billions of people then it seems to me that very few of these other
customers would care about the RFC series.

I'd put that equal first with use by operators. In fact, I suspect that
operators outnumber developers.

Otherwise, you're correct (but add educators and researchers). However
I think we want all of them inside the big tent, don't we?

Hi Peter,

At the risk of being accused of pedantry...

Tell us about RFC 4417.
And RFC 6702.
RFC 7259 gives an interesting slant.

Etc. =F0=9F=98=8A

Perhaps we also need to be a bit careful when we say, "use of *our* =
documents." Who are the "we" that we refer to?

Anyway, the point here is not that you and Brian are wrong about the =
primary uses, but that we don't want to sacrifice other uses =
accidentally along the way.

Cheers,
Adrian

Likely so. However, operators offer services based on the code that
developers write, so I think of these as one bundle.

See my comment below about people wouldn't care a whit about the RFC
series if billions of developers and operators didn't have running code.

Although I can't object to a big tent, I think it would be helpful for
us to think clearly about these different communities of interest so
that we can prioritize their respective needs.

I=E2=80=99ve read documents like that too.

We should probably do better.

It=E2=80=99s not at all unusual for a document to come with so little =
context that someone other than an SME implementor would have trouble =
getting anything useful out of it. Which would be fine, if there were =
some other document that explained what other users of the document =
needed to know. Sometimes there is=E2=80=94sometimes we have operational =
documents, for example. But it=E2=80=99s not uncommon for =E2=80=9Chow =
this works=E2=80=9D to either be completely absent, or else only =
available as a result of an SME-level survey of a bunch of documents. =
The thing that=E2=80=99s missing is that if only SMEs can understand the =
document, then the only way to get new SMEs is through a lineage of =
existing SMEs who train them. Hopefully the reason this is a problem is =
obvious.

Now, whether you agree with the assertion I=E2=80=99m making here or =
not, the reason I bring it up in this context is that your original =
assertion, Peter, seems to substantiate the existence of unrepresented =
document users. Perhaps it=E2=80=99s not our job (or the RSE=E2=80=99s) =
to see to it that they are represented. However, looking back over my =
checkered career as an IETF participant, there are quite a few documents =
that, if I had it to do over again, I would have insisted ought to do a =
better job of explaining to a new reader what the theory of operation of =
the protocol was, before describing the implementation details. So I =
would not object to some pushback when the RSE encounters a document =
like this. The documents I have in mind are actually documents I should =
have pushed back on as an AD, but so maybe the answer isn=E2=80=99t to =
have the RSE fill this role, but it=E2=80=99s definitely a role that I =
think someone should be filling.

Bear in mind that if there=E2=80=99s an understanding that a poorly =
explained protocol spec would get pushback, that=E2=80=99s going to =
motivate the working group to do a better job prior to submission, so in =
principle the RSE and/or ADs don't actually have to do anything other =
than look stern. But the threat of pushback has to be there.

Hiya,

I think I agree with you both - that developers and then
those deploying are our primary audience and that there
are others too, as Brian said.

One thing though: IMO when we say "developers" there, I
interpret that to not only mean developers following today's
fashions, but also those who might follow future fashions,
to the extent those be reasonably considered. To put that
another way, I think RFCs should probably never be exactly
what any one developer wants at a given moment in time, as
RFCs need to be more generic and longer-lasting.

Cheers,
S.

Jay,

=20

It may be as simple as the distinction between content and form.

=20

The stream manager knows (or should know) how the content can be useful =
to the consumers. But it seems unlikely that the stream manager =
understands the ways in which the content (i.e., the documents) will be =
stored, accessed, read, and otherwise used by a disparate community.

=20

Cheers,

Adrian

Or to put this another way, it reads as if some want the RSE/A to have a =

to deliberately disconnect the streams from their part in that.  Have I =

I don't disagree, but I would note that the intricacies of
RFCs are not really the primary job of the stream managers -
maybe the ISE is closest, but the IETF, IAB and IRTF stream
managers have I think mostly so far always been people who
are pretty busy elsewhere.

So I think there're also pragmatic reasons to plump for the
RSE as this "gap filler" - if one sees this as related to
the question as to why/how the series has (so far) been so
long-lived but has remained useful.

Cheers,
S.

Good old 4417. Documentation of an IAB messaging workshop, cited by no
other RFCs, and perhaps deservedly disappeared down the memory hole.

We do need to document our own procedures, don't we? Proving the rule
(in the original sense), this is more documentation, albeit internally
focused.

A cute experiment, never widely implemented.

Those of us writing the documents, commenting on them, implementing
them, etc.

For sure. I'm not suggesting that we sacrifice anyone's interests, only
first of all that we understand them. :-) However, I would suggest that
at some point we will need to weight them because not everyone's
interests can be the top priority.

Thinking aloud now, but I wonder if any thought has been given to a new stru=
cture designed to create that feedback loop more directly.  For example, som=
ething as simple as a feedback form accessible from each RFC page would be a=
 good start.  I imagine it would be used most when a new RFC is published.

Peter, that does not match my understanding or observations; many 
operators read our RFCs, and attempt to get what they want from vendors 
(as they should).  How effective they are at it varies.

Also, other SDOs use our RFCs to build solution profiles that are used 
by Operators.

Product line managers read (or at least try to decipher) our RFCs to try 
to drive what will go into products.

And the list goes on.

While implementors are an important constituency, they are by no means 
the only one.  And I doubt that they constitute even 50% of the readership.

Yours,
Joel

Surveys are useful when tightly targeted and there's an immediate use of 
their outputs.  In the case of just published RFC's, that use may be 
years or decades in the future when the next version of the document 
starts to wend its way through the IETF.   Every question you might ask 
on the survey would have hopefully been asked during the documents 
development or during the approval process.

So - I can't imagine this tool to be very useful.  Or am I misguessing 
what types of questions you had in mind asking?

It's a fun game to play:  let's create a list of people that might want
to read (and understand) our RFCs:

   Grandma
   Kernel Protocol Software Engineers

Then we can fill it in and draw a line somewhere for 'who our community
is?' and hope it's the same line as 'who we are writing these things for?'
and hope it's the same line as 'who's opinions do we care about?'.

   
   Average computer owners
   Savvy computer owners
   Layers
   CEOs
   CTOs
   Product managers (thanks Joel)
   Commercial and Government procurement managers 
   Open source in their spare time authors
   Commercial Application developers 
   Network operators
   Machine Language researchers
   Security researchers
   Networking researchers
   Networking equipment engineers   
   Kernel Protocol Software Engineers

I'm sure the list is much longer.  I'm sure others would sort it
differently.  But in the end, isn't there a line somewhere, or a rating
to apply per line for "how much we optimize our documents for that set
of people"?  And the question then becomes "how do we get feedback from
them?" and "does the RSA/E need to have skills to and the requirements
to conduct that study?"

(I'll note that if the answer to the last question is "no" then maybe
the topic is out of scope for the near term at least?)

I think that Jay is making an important point: the reason we have the 
streams in the first place is because we want to provide useful content, 
which is very much the task of the stream managers or the organizations 
that they represent. To answer Stephen's question, I think the main 
reason why "the series has (so far) been so
long-lived but has remained useful" is, because the IETF managed to 
produce specifications that are useful for the Internet. This is 
primarily a matter of producing good content. The form matters two, 
specifically the property that specifications are available to everybody 
without restrictions, and, for the continuity part, the property that 
the IETF publication are easily recognized as part of a long duration 
series. But if we do believe that this is primarily about "producing the 
right content", then the responsibility of verifying that belong to the 
stream managers, not to a technical expert.

I agree Christian that the content is primary.
But the point of this part of the process is about the form and clarity, 
not the technical substance.

We do not select people to be stream managers.  For the various roles 
from which stream managers come (except maybe the ISE) technical 
publication expertise, understanding of the impact of presentation form, 
and even receptivity to the many outside communities that use our 
documents are not high on the list of criteria that the nomcom uses.
WWe can, and I think should, make sure those are included in the RSE/A 
selection criteria.  And then give them the participation and voice to 
go with that.

Yours,
Joel

Personally, I think ways to garner input and review of
published RFCs is a major missing mechanism. The errata
process as-is seems to me a very weak late 20th-C attempt at
that on which it really ought be easy to improve. And I'd say
a good RSE, with time and time-to-focus available, ought be
able to oversee a vast improvement on status quo.

I do think there's an editorial element to that - we already
see spam-errata fairly regularly, as well as random comments
on no-longer-interesting RFCs, so whatever better scheme
might be put in place will require judgement and management
as to proper disposition of comments. That couldn't and
shouldn't be done by an RSE in isolation, but managing it
seems to me to be a fine task for an RSE to me.

Cheers,
S.

That seems... fuzzy. Examples?

This is in no way unique to the governance of the RFC Series. IETF WGs =
make decisions all the time about things that affect folks that don't =
show up, or are only partially represented by those in the room. =
Recently, I wrote an RFC about that, and how we should handle it.

As such, I remain unconvinced that the RFC Series is a special case that =
needs extraordinary processes or powers for a designated expert.

Then the consequences will be felt.

I am unwilling to bless someone as a monarch over the series just =
because something bad might happen one day, and we need someone to =
rescue us by telling us what to do. That much responsibility should not =
sit on one head, no matter what their heredity, credentials or =
provenance. We're currently trying to untangle such a position from the =
governance of the W3C, and it's a real bear.=20

Better to stay with the well-worn path that the IETF has paved: create =
multiple layers of appeal that get more infrequently used and more =
deliberative as you work your way up, in the hope that time, distance =
and cooler heads will prevail. If the RSA/E gives good advice, it should =
be listened to.

Cheers,

Hi Mark,

>=20
>> 	=E2=80=A2 Do people agree that damage to a stream would include =
long term strategic damage to the series?
>=20
> That seems... fuzzy. Examples?


The example I gave earlier applies: what if the WG decides to approve a =
format that blind people can=E2=80=99t read?  Another example would be =
the WG approving a format change that would put archival value at risk =
(let=E2=80=99s say, HTML over EBCDIC, tarred up and compressed with an =
algorithm that people might have stopped using long ago, back in 2030).  =
A third example would be to destabilize the referential nature of the =
series.

The key point is that any harm would not be immediate, but rather the =
change would, in the opinion of TBD # streams, risk the long term =
viability of the series.

I think this example is quite clarifying, so I'm going to stop here. While
the question of whether a particular format is accessible requires
specialized expertise, the question of how accessible to make things is a
policy question of the kind we ordinarily leave to WGs. Why would (for
instance) the ISE have particular insight into this matter or particular
legitimacy to object?

Well, clearly, the ISE (or any Stream Manager, so we erm, don=E2=80=99t =
risk getting personal?) might have personal experience and insight. But =
that is entirely distinct from the legitimacy to object.

=20

But who *does* object, and why?

=20

Consider if the WG is not aware that their proposals will have the =
negative impact. Should someone on the approval group have the ability =
to say =E2=80=9CHold on, wait. Take this back and consider what you are =
doing.=E2=80=9D This is, frankly, the equivalent of a Discuss in the =
IETF Stream.=20

=20

Of course, if the WG decides as a matter of policy to make the change in =
the full knowledge of what they are doing, then that might be fine. I =
would like to see that sort of thing backed up by text that says =
=E2=80=9CWe know the effect of what we are doing, and this is why =
we=E2=80=99re doing it.=E2=80=9D Who goes back to the WG and says =
=E2=80=9CYou must/should include this.=E2=80=9D That=E2=80=99s somewhere =
between a Discuss and a Comment on the IETF Stream.

=20

The answer to =E2=80=9Cwho=E2=80=9D for both of these paragraphs could =
be =E2=80=9Cno need to do this because it will be handled by normal =
discussion in the WG=E2=80=9D but we know from the technical work that =
this doesn=E2=80=99t always happen. We know that the final review cycle =
adds value and catches issues, and we have process for handling that.

=20

So (back to the issue at hand) if the Stream Managers cannot raise this =
type of =E2=80=9CDiscuss=E2=80=9D off their own bat or because of advice =
received, then someone else needs to be able to do it.

=20

Cheers,

Adrian

Hi,

a format that blind people can=E2=80=99t read?

While the question of whether a particular format is accessible requires =
specialized expertise, the question of how accessible to make things is =
a policy question of the kind we ordinarily leave to WGs. Why would (for =
instance) the ISE have particular insight into this matter or particular =

>=20

Because the ISE might happen to have that experience from other work =
experiences. However, I would expect the RSE would have the purview here =
to raise this issue, and/or object accordingly. One of the benefits here =
would be that while the WG is generally focused on what the WG cares =
about (and less about the larger issues of the RFC Series, longevity, =
archival issues, etc), that HAS been in the wheelhouse of the RSE. =
Further, having a group of folks who can provide reasonable input or =
feedback on the issues is seems prudent. The ISE in your example might =
not have direct experience with the issue of "approving a format blind =
people can't read", but when the RSE raises an objection and outlines =
the why, I'd expect stream managers to understand the argument for (or =
against).

Thanks,
Sarah=

Yes. But what strikes me in ekr's line of argument, and also in mnot's co=

is very bluntly an implication that "we" (for some value of "we" that see=
ms to mainly comprise protocol engineers) know better than an experienced=
 technical publisher about non-protocol-engineering aspects of technical =
publishing.

We don't.

I would like to continue tugging at this thread in the interest of
collective clarity.

What I'm trying to understand is the mental model that people on this
list have of what "technical publishing" means in our context, and what
"aspects of technical publishing" are most relevant to our needs.

As I said here the other day, one perspective is that *mostly* what's
happening in the RFC series is that we protocol engineers are publishing
documentation for other technical folks (programmers, operators,
technically-minded product managers and regulators, etc.).

To my mind, in several respects this feels different from the kind of
technical publishing involved in, say, physics or medicine journals,
scholarly books, aircraft maintenance manuals, and professional
magazines. Indeed, it seems much more similar to the ongoing series of
technical proposals and documents produced in communities centered on,
say, programming languages like Python [1] or Rust [2] - some of which
are even called RFCs (and none of which involve contributions, as far as
I know, from an "experienced technical publisher"). I realize that this
very pragmatic perspective might seem to relegate the RFC series to mere
documentation, but I don't see it as "mere" in any way - look at what
we've built since April 7, 1969.

So consider this to be one end of the spectrum or a very minimal
specification for what we do. If we add more features to the spec, what
further "aspects of technical publishing" need to be added?

If I knew that, I'd be an expert in technical publishing. That's why (IMH=
O) we need one, and profited greatly from having one for a number of year=
s.

We've collectively developed quite a strong dose of hubris, IMNSHO, and w=
e don't know what we don't know.

And that implies that your perspective is that this person always =

It also implies that the community is so obstinate as to ignore that =

Well, that's not what I'm saying, at least. What I'm saying is that we (in
this case the prospective members of the WG) are the group with the
legitimacy to make decisions. That doesn't mean not consulting experts, but
it means that the final decision making ought to rest with the community.
This doesn't seem to me to be a particularly unusual notion. Here are two
examples:

- The IETF LLC engages a lawyer to advise it on legal matters, but
ultimately makes the decisions with the lawyers advice (I think I have
given this example before).
- It's quite common in political systems to have departments staffed by
career civil servants who have subject matter expertise but to ultimately
accountable (typically headed) to political appointees who may or may not
have subject matter expertise.

My position is that it's the job of the community to take in expert
input/advice, including, but not limited to that of the RSE/A, and balance
it against other factors and ultimately come to a decision.

-Ekr

Mark, your quesiton of whether an RSE has needed to exercise such 
authority seems oddly formed since the very different operating 
structure probably renders the question historically meaningless.

On the other hand, we do have evidence of cases where it took a forceful 
AD to get a working group to do the right things technically.  Given 
that we have seen this in areas where we have real expertise, I find 
myself concluding that such need is more likely in a situation where the 
WG participants have less expertise.

Yours,
Joel

I was asking if there's a basis in history for granting an RSA/E special =

time (in various specific forms); I think it's relevant to ask if =
they've been used.=20

That may be, and I'm not necessarily against this person having *any* =
special consideration/weight in the process. However, if they have such =
powers, there should be corresponding constraints on them -- just as =
there are for an AD. And it needs to be more than 'the LLC decides =
whether to renew the contract' -- that's too indirect.

I think the analogy with the LLC's lawyer may well be misleading.  If 
the LLC ignores the lawyer's advice when he is right, there are external 
forces which are likely to make the issue rather material.
The forces at work in the RFC process are far more indirect.  Hence the 
pressures on the WG to listen to the RSE are very different from the 
pressures on the LLC to listen to the lawyer.  (The fact that we went 
further and put another lawyer on the LLC board itself can be argued to 
further this point.)

Yours,
Joel

Yes, I find it hard to disagree with that position. I think what are real=
ly talking about is the sanity-check level, where in the IETF we have qui=
te a superstructure today: the formal review teams, the IETF Last Call pr=
ocess, and the IESG review and DISCUSS process, which both you and I have=
 been part of in the past. What we're talking about is the equivalent
superstructure for the RFC series' own documents, and specifically how th=
e "lawyer-equivalent" role fits into that. I'm uncomfortable that the exp=
ert's last chance to raise objections is (in effect) at the WG Last Call =
stage. In the IESG analogy, there is further expert review during the app=
roval process. I care about that, not so much about voting rules.

Since the clear split between the RSE and ISE functions, things have been a bit different and much clearer, I think. Before that split, the RSE (in the person of Jon Postel or Bob Braden) certainly took publish/don't publish decisions for non-IETF drafts, and published the style guide autonomously (or with a nominal OK from the IAB). Since the split, as far as I know, only the ISE has made publish/don't publish decisions, and the RSE plus the production team have updated the style guide, taken decisions about archival, and so on. I think it's fair to say that the style guide has never been a consensus document. That doesn't mean there was no consultation, but the decisions were autonomous.

Another example: the RFC Series ISSN was obtained in 2008. That was essentially a decision between the then RSE and the IETF Trust (copyright holder for the RFC Series), in consultation with the then Editorial Board. There was advance notification to the IETF list,  and a few days of discussion, but it certainly wasn't a community consensus.
(Thread starting at https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ietf/PF0dHtc5KK_hqyXkrzxM755s9MI/)

In the new regime we're discussing here, I assume the decision would have been taken by the WG and approved (or not) by the approval body. The opinion of a publishing expert would be an important part of the process.

However, if they have such powers, there should be corresponding constraints on them -- just as there are for an AD.

It seems to me that we have reached a position where we are stuck between
two positions which I shall express crudely:

1. The WG must be supreme and, while the approval group can express concerns
and return things to the WG for further consideration, the WG must be
allowed to have its way.

2. The approval group in the form of one of its "voting" members must be
allowed to block output of the WG that it considers harmful to the series or
to one of the streams in the series.

These positions are accompanied by fears (valid or not) about how people and
groups might operate, to force through ideas or to block them. Some are
concerned that too many people will have the option to block work based on
an overly wide perceived remit and overriding the will of the community.
Others are concerned that the WG may become dominated by a clique of loud
voices and that key opinions may be overridden in the operation of the
"normal" IETF consensus process. There are probably other nuanced issues
that we don't need to dig up.

I don't believe we are likely to reach consensus to swing to align with
either position 1 or 2 based on what I have seen in this discussion.

So I'd like to make a proposal which is in the form of an escalation
procedure based quite heavily on the processes used by the IESG when
balloting on documents. It goes as follows:

A. The WG last calls its work following the model of an IETF WG. It is
assumed that all members of the approval group will participate in the WG,
and particularly in the WG last call, in an attempt to uncover any of their
concerns early, and to avoid late surprises. It is understood that, from
time to time, a member of the approval group may find it impossible to
participate in a particular discussion: they are encourage to send
delegates.
B. The "voting" members of the approval group review the work and ballot.
    They may ballot Yes, Block, No Position, Abstain, or Recuse.
    - Yes means "I support this work." A Yes ballot may be accompanied by
comments indicating thoughts and issues that should be looked at, but are
non-blocking. 
    - Block means "I have a serious concern that needs to be resolved before
this work can proceed."
    - No Position should only be used in exceptional cases such as illness
or long vacation. Voting members are expected to try to present a different
ballot position.
    - Abstain means "I have a serious concern, but  recognise that it will
not be resolved."
    - Recuse means "I am somehow so involved in this work that it would be
improper for me to have a position."
C. Work proceeds if:
    There is at least one "Yes" and no "Block" ballots.
D. In the event of one or more Block ballots, the work cannot proceed to
completion. There must be discussion in the WG between the members of the
approval group who balloted "Block" and the WG, and the focus of the
discussion must be on addressing the concerns and reaching consensus.
E. All comments in Yes ballots must be returned to the WG and the WG must
attempt to address them through the normal consensus process.
F. In the event of there being exactly one Block ballot, and it being
impossible to reach agreement between the WG and the member of the approval
group who issued the ballot, the approval group will exercise an exception
resolution process as follows:
F1. The approval group will discuss the concern giving rise to the ballot
and any proposed resolution from the WG
F2. The approval group will vote on whether to sustain the Block or to
release the work
F3. The vote shall be by simple majority with the chair of the group holding
a casting vote in the event of a tie.
F4. If the Block is sustained, return to step D.
F5. If the work is released, return to step C.

I am sure that we can bike-shed the details of this. And, before we are
done, we should do that and we should reach a process that we can all agree
upon.

But, in the mean time I am interested to know whether *something*similar* to
this could address the concerns of both sides of the current debate.

Thanks,
Adrian

I like this framing, because it really throws into relief the core issue 
that I think is causing an impasse, even if it hasn't been brought forth 
explicitly: which group is more likely to be subject to capture by 
people who will make decisions that are subjectively bad for the series? 
A small, closed group, or a large open one?

The calculus might change a bit one way or the other depending on 
whether the closed group is directly appointed, indirectly appointed, or 
comprised primarily of ex-officio members, but I think this question is 
really the elephant in the room that we need to address.

No. That's the whole point of having an approval body.

I'm pretty sure we shouldn't do that, which is why my proposal is much simpler and intentionally lacks details, but IMHO has exactly the same effect:

*The approval body shall operate by consensus.*

That's all. Just the dictionary definition of "consensus". How they reach consensus is their choice.

If we must spell it out, Adrian's formulation is fine, although I'd prefer the traditional "Discuss" to "Block".

Adam - I've seen many times over my years with the IETF where a large 
group has been captured by a smaller group and made decisions that could 
be argued to be bad along at least one axis or another.  In fact, that 
was one of the reasons that I've been from time to time urging that the 
CFRG become a WG instead.

I don't think there's a strong argument that a random small group of 
self-selected experts is better than a community selected group picked 
using the criteria of specific expertise.   In fact, the selection of 
the IESG is exactly that.  Or would you argue that your selection as AD 
was flawed and you should have been replaced by a self-selected group 
claiming expertise in ART?

*sigh*

Mike

I think that this assessment is close enough to how things are going.  I might have said that it wasn't "fears" on my own part, in the perhaps deluded view that my objection was more principled.  That is, I want no individual to have the power to overwhelm the process in any direction, whether that be stagnation or toward their personal goals.  But I don't think the exact reason matter much.

The formulation of the process seems fine.  With a bunch of quibbles:

* I think that Brian's consensus thing is how things will work in practice, but we need a backstop and this is reasonable.  

* I would note that the Abstain/No Position/Recuse distinctions are not process relevant and so likely only serve to enable posturing, which might not be helpful (I've seen abstention in the IESG used this way and I believe it to be unhealthy), but that's a minor niggle.

* I don't think that the chair acting as tie-breaker is a good idea.  This group doesn't need a privileged role like that (and they might not even need a chair given the likely size).  I think that overturning a blocking position should take more people voting to overturn than voting to sustain.  For a group of size 4, that means 3 out of 4 and I think that's entirely appropriate.

I would enhance this with:

* We need an explicit process for public comment periods for proposals before approval can occur.  There probably needs to be a fixed duration for that comment period and then a time limit on when approvals are completed.  These might be fairly generous given the non-urgent nature of the work, but I think that we can't allow unbounded time.

* I would add that the request for approval of a document should come with a report that details dissent in the working group and that any individual can have their dissent position explicitly included in that report in their own words.  I am thinking here specifically about RSA/E, because this seems to be particularly important.

* I would add that any block position needs to come with a clear statement about the reasons for it.  We might want to develop guidelines for what is and isn't valid reasons for that.  I like that this explicitly includes discussion of that position, but I think that discussion needs a concrete starting point.

There are obviously many failure modes that can be invented where the approvals body and WG end up at loggerheads and this all breaks down.  As we've noted before, invoking a higher authority might be necessary, but that needs to be very carefully constrained.  We've a history of relying on appeals without invoking them in this organization, which I think is a fine tradition to continue.

I could live with something of this general shape, although it's 
certainly not my top choice.

Process notwithstanding, this proposal is fundamentally position #2 with 
"one of" replaced by "a simple majority of," which still falls back to 
the capture question. The whole proposal would be made significantly 
more palatable if we had an appeals process that allowed for outcome 
based on substance rather than process, but I recognize that this runs 
into a sticky conversation about which body receives the appeal.

                1. The WG must be supreme and, while the approval group
                can express concerns<br class="">
                and return things to the WG for further consideration,
                the WG must be<br class="">
                allowed to have its way.<br class="">
                <br class="">
                2. The approval group in the form of one of its "voting"
                members must be<br class="">
                allowed to block output of the WG that it considers
                harmful to the series or<br class="">
                to one of the streams in the series.<br class="">
                <br class="">
                These positions are accompanied by fears (valid or not)
                about how people and<br class="">
                groups might operate, to force through ideas or to block
                them.<br class="">

To be fair, this characterization effectively matches the facts on the 
ground; see, e.g., 
https://www6.ietf.org/iesg/appeal/response-to-klensin-2008-06-13.txt

The closer we can hew to this model where the approving body has very 
little power in the face of strong community sentiment, the closer we 
come to finding a compromise between the two positions Adrian lays out.

I'm roughly in the same boat; there are some details that need =
bikeshedding^H^H^Hrefinement, but I could live with it.

I agree that we need to figure out something for appeals; in general, =
multiple layers of approval/appeal increases confidence in the work, and =
it's something we should figure out, even if finding the stuckee is =
hard.

Cheers,

This is the point where I have my doubts. As far as I understand, on the 
IESG, a lot of No Objection ballots are tolerated because of the wide 
range of topics the IESG deals with and the large number of drafts. In 
my imagination, RFC-related decisions should be supported by something 
closer to consensus than just a single member being fully in on a 
proposal. The number of proposals should also not be that high, so that 
every member should easily be able to form a well-founded position on 
every proposal. Also, at least in the case of stream managers, illness 
or long vacations should be handled by having a (temporary) replacement 
for the stream manager position, which would extend to the position on 
the approval group.

Regards,   Martin.

Hi Martin,

Top post.

It was a straw man, not a firm position.

My thinking was that "no position" should not be a common event. But =
there will always be corner cases.

Not that the IESG has "no objection" and "no ballot made". I would say =
that "no objection" should not exist: say yes or no, but don't say =
nothing. However, the "no position" is needed just in case circumstances =
intervene.

I think I'm in this last position.  But I think this needs to be a 
default of "fails without approval" rather than "proceeds without a 
block".  Unlike most other documents approved through the IETF system, a 
document in this stream has the possibility of screwing up the entire 
system of documents and hence a bit more care should be taken and a bit 
more approval should be needed before the document becomes the law of 
the land (IETF).

I would delete "Abstain"  as not being a possible position.  I'd change 
"Block" to "No".   Members of the approval group are expected to review 
and have a position on all documents.  A "serious concern" with the 
document has to translate to a "No".

I'd change C to "There is at least a majority of "Yes" votes and no more 
than one "No".

Alternately, I'd allow a Block on a first vote and have that cause the 
approval body to enter into a one month delay on a final vote regardless 
of the number of Yes votes.  The WG or other submitter may chose at that 
point to withdraw the document from consideration for final approval to 
address any comments.

I'd also strongly suggest that the WG MUST engage with the approving 
body prior to submission of the documents to ensure that not only are 
the WG desires met, but that the needs of the Streams are considered.

Mike

I think that Adrian picked these words based on my message.  My message =
was based on the ballot positions used by the IESG for charters.

I think that "Block" has a connotation that further discussion is =
welcome.  On the other hand, "No" sounds too final.

Thanks Russ, all, for comments.

Eliot has asked me to try to synthesise the comments received so far =
into a refined write-up in time for Thursday's meeting.

No doubt I'll manage this somehow (possibly forgoing something or other =
=F0=9F=98=89)

Agree. But unlike the rest of the IETF style document processes, this 
group is dealing with a) a very small document set, and b) a very 
focused document set and c) a requirement to involve the approval body 
in the formation of such documents.  If a document makes it to the 
approval body without resolving the approval body comment(s), I'd 
suggest that discussion has already completed and that the person voting 
"no" is acknowledging that process.

So, in your view "no" is really a "never".  IE, it's too late to discuss
further because the discussion has already concluded and there is never
anything beyond this voting point?  IE, this is the last step in the
decision making process?

Hi,

As previously noted, Eliot (lawd bless 'im) has bullied^H^H^H persuaded me
to take a second pass trying to factor in some of the comments on the list.

I can't promise that I have captured *exactly* what everyone said,
especially as some of the opinions were conflicting. What I have done is try
to move the text towards something that might be a compromise between the
positions. FWIW, I went back to the "Discuss" position because it carries
some implication that we are all going to try to get together and resolve
this.

I also tried to cut some of the waffle. I do tend to waffle.

There are two open points. I'd humbly suggest that the people who raised
these issues might try to throw some text at a solution. 

1. At point C there is the concept of a "community last call". This was
raised by Martin and Russ, and I suggest that they put forward a proposal.
The challenge might be to find a way to identify and reach the "community"
(it's easy in the IETF, but very hard for "the world").

2. At point J there is the concept of "an appeal" in the case of Discusses
being unreconcilable. This was raised by Adam and Mark. The challenge, as
they noted, is working out to whom one appeals.

Hope this is useful (which is, after all, the only point).

Adrian

====

Decision-making procedures

A. Development Cycle
The WG is expected to show its work to the approval group and attempt to be
aware of issues that the approval group might be concerned about.
The members of the approval group are expected to pay attention to the work
of the WG and speak up when they have concerns.
The intention is early discovery of issues and avoidance of late surprises.

B. WG last call
The WG last calls its work following the model of an IETF WG. It is assumed
that all members of the approval group will participate the WG last call, in
an attempt to expose any of their concerns that still remain, and to reach
agreement. 

C. Community last call / public comment
It is unclear whether this step (corresponding to IETF last call) exists and
how it would be operated. Further discussion needed per Martin and Russ.

D. Participation by members of the approval group
As noted in steps A and B, participation in WG work by members of the
approval group is expected.
It is understood that, from time to time, a member of the approval group may
find it impossible to participate in a particular discussion: in this case,
they are encourage to send delegates.

E. Discussion by the approval group
The approval group shall discuss the output of the WG. 
Such discussion is to take place normally within 2 weeks of the WG making a
request.
The 2 week period may be stretched by holidays or IETF meetings, but the WG
must be notified if this is the case.
All comments and concerns shall be documented to the WG which may take them
into consideration.

F. Approval by the approval group
The voting members of the approval group shall formally ballot by the end of
the discussion period in E.
Each voting member may ballot one of:
- Yes: Means "I support this work." A Yes ballot may be accompanied by
comments indicating thoughts and issues that should be looked at, but are
non-blocking. 
- Discuss: Means "I have a serious concern that I would like to Discuss
before this work can proceed." Voting members are expected to actively
engage in resolving their Discuss positions.
- No Position: Only used in exceptional cases such as illness or long
vacation. Voting members are expected to try to present a different ballot
position.
- Abstain: Means "I have a serious concern, but recognise that it will not
be resolved." An Abstain ballot is a way for a voting member to get out of
the way of progress even though it worries them. The existence of an Abstain
ballot does not imply the work is flawed, but indicates a genuinely
irreconcilable difference of opinion.
- Recuse: Means "It would be improper for me to have a position." For
example, if the proposal was to remunerate the voting member.

G. Reasons for a Discuss
The approval group shall maintain a list of reasons for a Discuss ballot. A
Discuss that does not conform to one of these reasons shall not be valid,
and must be re-balloted.
An initial draft of this list is as follows:
- The proposal would cause significant harm to one of the streams
- The proposal would cause significant harm to the series
- The proposal would cause inconvenience to a group of consumers, the
benefit of the change does not outweigh the cost of the inconvenience, and
that inconvenience could be overcome by using a different approach

G. Work proceeds if...
At the end of the discussion period (point E) or at any later time, there is
at least one "Yes" and no "Discuss" ballot. That is, work fails to proceed
unless it has approval.

H. Resolution of Discusses
A voting member who ballots Discuss shall explain their concerns to the WG
and shall engage in discussions attempting to resolve the concerns and
arrive at a compromise or other agreement.
When such agreement is reached, the voting member should transition their
ballot to a "Yes".
A voting member may transition their ballot to an "Abstain" at any time,
although all parties are encouraged to attempt to reach agreement.

I. Single Discuss resolution
In the event of there being exactly one Discuss ballot, and there being no
timely progress to agreement between the WG and the member of the approval
group who issued the ballot, the WG may request that the approval group
exercise an exception resolution process as follows:
- The approval group will discuss the concern giving rise to the ballot and
any proposed resolution from the WG
- The approval group shall attempt to reach consensus on whether to sustain
the Discuss or to release the work, but failing that shall vote with a
simple majority determining the outcome
- If the Discuss is sustained, return to step H
- If the work is released, the Discuss ballot shall be changed to an Abstain
and the work shall progress

J. Appeals
In the event that more than one Discuss cannot be resolved or that a single
Discuss is sustained by the approval group, there is a right of appeal.
The details of this need to be worked out per Adam and Mark.

No.  What I said in the other thread was:


   - Do people agree that any objections must be returned to the WG for
   discussion?

I don't know what that actually does.   Rejected documents (not originating

Mike, I tried to capture something along these lines in my 2nd cut.

=20

That is:

*	Approval body people should participate in the WG and WGLC
*	The reasons for a Discuss must be clearly stated and communicated to =
the WG
*	A discusser must attempt to resolve the issue in discussion with the =
WG

=20

Wordsmithing is welcome.

So, in your view "no" is really a "never".  IE, it's too late to discuss
further because the discussion has already concluded and there is never
anything beyond this voting point?  IE, this is the last step in the
decision making process?

No.  What I said in the other thread was: =20

*	Do people agree that any objections must be returned to the WG for =
discussion?

I don't know what that actually does.   Rejected documents (not =
originating in the approval body) that don't get approved are in the =
state that all non approved documents end up in and the WG or authors =

I think the above is reasonable as far as it goes - but I'd really 
suggest there is no "Discuss" vote - just a "No" vote.   An approval 
body member who has issues should have tried to address them in the WG.  
When the document is submitted to the AB, if such issues remain, the AB 
member can either vote Yes maybe indicating in the minutes that these 
issues remain unaddressed, but they won't block on them, or No.  If 
there are sufficient No votes (or insufficient Yes votes), then the fact 
that the issue(s) remain unresolved gets conveyed with the rejection.  
The WG can either try again or abandon the documents.

Unlike the IETF model where the IESG as a whole has little initial input 
into the documents, that can't be the case here if we expect to have a 
functioning RFC system. The AB members MUST be involved in the WG 
activities.  Because of that difference, the IESG discuss model really 
does not fit the RFC model.

OK, thanks Mike.

=20

I=E2=80=99m not going to debate, but I just wanted to say what was =
underlying my thinking.

It seemed to me that everything you say about getting discussion done in =
the WG and early seems good. However, I didn=E2=80=99t want to just draw =
a line at that point when the strength of view of the approval group =
member might not have been clear, and the discussions in the WG should =
(possibly) not be predicated on a persons opinion being so powerful.=20

The whole point, I hope, is that everything can be a discussion with it =
being understood that each approval group member has a position that =
they are bound to defend.

=20

Anyway, onwards to other people=E2=80=99s voices.

Mike, I tried to capture something along these lines in my 2nd cut.

That is:

1.	Approval body people should participate in the WG and WGLC
2.	The reasons for a Discuss must be clearly stated and communicated to =
the WG
3.	A discusser must attempt to resolve the issue in discussion with the =
WG

=20

I think the above is reasonable as far as it goes - but I'd really =
suggest there is no "Discuss" vote - just a "No" vote.   An approval =
body member who has issues should have tried to address them in the WG.  =
When the document is submitted to the AB, if such issues remain, the AB =
member can either vote Yes maybe indicating in the minutes that these =
issues remain unaddressed, but they won't block on them, or No.  If =
there are sufficient No votes (or  insufficient Yes votes), then the =
fact that the issue(s) remain unresolved gets conveyed with the =
rejection.  The WG can either try again or abandon the documents.

Unlike the IETF model where the IESG as a whole has little initial input =
into the documents, that can't be the case here if we expect to have a =
functioning RFC system. The AB members MUST be involved in the WG =
activities.  Because of that difference, the IESG discuss model really =
does not fit the RFC model.

So, in your view "no" is really a "never".  IE, it's too late to discuss
further because the discussion has already concluded and there is never
anything beyond this voting point?  IE, this is the last step in the
decision making process?

No.  What I said in the other thread was: =20

=20

1.	Do people agree that any objections must be returned to the WG for =
discussion?

I don't know what that actually does.   Rejected documents (not =
originating in the approval body) that don't get approved are in the =
state that all non approved documents end up in and the WG or authors =
can take whatever actions they want including revising and resubmitting. =
 I'd say instead that rejections from the approval body need a cover =
letter of some sort similar to how feedback works in the other streams =
and leave it at that.

Rather than have the approval body process devolve into an adjunct of =
the WG process, I=E2=80=99d like there to be a clean separation between =
the two.  This also makes clear the two roles for the members of the =
approval body in both participating in the crafting of the document sin =
the WG and the decision process in the approval body.

Good catch.  The AB needs to have some sort of buy in for individual 
submissions which suggests that at least the general scope of the IS 
needs to be discussed with the AB near the beginning of the document 
process.    I think the approval process remains the same, but there 
needs to be a flavor of an adoption process - e.g. some AB member has to 
sponsor the document prior to it being submitted for approval and that 
AB member would be responsible for working with the author(s) to deal 
with probable AB pushbacks.

Not really a debate - but just trying to capture the AB member's dual 
roles as both approvers and being involved in the formation of the 
documents.  I'm not against discussion - just trying to make the point 
that the "DISCUSS" vote in the IESG means something like "I haven't seen 
this before and something looks wonky, can you explain this to my 
satisfaction?" and that there should never be a case where a document 
reaches the approval process where an AB member "hasn't seen this before".

I.e., before the document reaches the approval phase in the AB, it's 
gone through a) consensus discussions and revisions, and b) WG last 
call.  AB issues with the document should be resolved before the 
document is sent to the AB (in other words, in the WG or during WG last 
call) and the AB sends out (if it should?) a c) community last call.

        <p>I think the above is reasonable as far as it goes - but I'd
          really suggest there is no "Discuss" vote - just a "No"
          vote.   An approval body member who has issues should have
          tried to address them in the WG.  When the document is
          submitted to the AB, if such issues remain, the AB member can
          either vote Yes maybe indicating in the minutes that these
          issues remain unaddressed, but they won't block on them, or
          No.  If there are sufficient No votes (or  insufficient Yes
          votes), then the fact that the issue(s) remain unresolved gets
          conveyed with the rejection.  The WG can either try again or
          abandon the documents.<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p>Unlike the IETF model where the IESG as a whole has little
          initial input into the documents, that can't be the case here
          if we expect to have a functioning RFC system. The AB members
          MUST be involved in the WG activities.  Because of that
          difference, the IESG discuss model really does not fit the RFC
          model.<o:p></o:p></p>

It's a good catch, but I'm inclined to a different answer: just say no.
I'm not seeing why we need a bypass in this case. We need the bypass
in the IETF for topics that simply don't need the overhead of a WG; in
this case we already *have* a WG.

If somebody believes, for example, that all RFCs should be translated
into Elbonian, I think it is necessary and sufficient to tell them to
take it to the working group.

Probably not.  I actually think there will be a few of these - maybe 
originated by the RPC or by a hired XML expert for example. I may be 
wrong, but the WG is probably the wrong path for some documents.

If someone proposed Elbonian, I'd suggest that the AB probably wouldn't 
approve it if they were anywhere near sane regardless of whether this 
was an IC or a WG sponsored document.

Later, Mike

I'm going to say simply yes, good enough to go forward.

Especially, yes to "Discuss" rather than either "Block" or "No". Discussion is the goal.

One one point:

I'd say we're asking for trouble if we don't have a public comment period.
That could be done via a web form to limit trolling etc. And the RSA/E
(or somebody else) needs to be responsible for outreach.

Yes. And the process in the WG could (and should) be very short and 
light if it's a document from the RPC or an XML expert that nobody 
disagrees with, or that is just published for the record, without by 
itself changing anything in the publication process.

I think that this is good.

The community last call process I had imagined was simple: an email is sent to a number of venues asking for input, with a 2-4 week period allowed as circumstances dictate.  This is not the internal check that the WG performs, but one that deliberately seeks input from a broader audience.  Feedback from this stage is intended to inform AB decisions, but it also might cause the WG to retract their request for approval (which would allow them to address a concern without forcing a vote).

As a starting point, I would suggest that we simply document that a list of email addresses to which the announcement/request be sent.  It might be seeded with rfc-interest@ and then added to as requested.  I expect that last-call@ would be a good candidate and iab@ might be.  The IRTF/IRSG and ISEB might also have their own preferences, but I'm not familiar enough with those to say.  It might also be of interest to other groups like IEEE, ITU-T, and so forth.  My suggestion is that all we need to document is that the AB maintain the list and that they accept all reasonable requests to be added.

Nit: There are two G's.

This is not the internal check that the WG performs, but one that deliberately seeks input from a broader audience.  Feedback from this stage is intended to inform AB decisions, but it also might cause the WG to retract their request for approval (which would allow them to address a concern without forcing a vote).

It might be seeded with rfc-interest@ and then added to as requested.  I expect that last-call@ would be a good candidate and iab@ might be.  The IRTF/IRSG and ISEB might also have their own preferences, but I'm not familiar enough with those to say.  It might also be of interest to other groups like IEEE, ITU-T, and so forth.  My suggestion is that all we need to document is that the AB maintain the list and that they accept all reasonable requests to be added.

Not much to add. Putting a notice on the top page of 
https://www.rfc-editor.org/ (and a few other notorious pages) also 
should be considered.

In addition, I think the above list and locations should also be used 
for a heads-up when starting some serious work. As an example, when 
working on the RFC XML format version N, don't just send a note when you 
think you are done (at last call), but send a message that invites 
interested parties when you're starting.

Regards,   Martin.

Looks good to me, except for two points:

- You still have the approval threshold at 1 YES. As others also have
   said, this is not appropriate for the topics at hand. The 'abstain'
   should probably also go.
   (second point G, with some influence on point F)
   (In the IESG, it's okay that a draft be approved essentially on the
    responsibility of a single AD; it should never happen that we have
    something RFC-related approved and later, one AB member gets blamed
    for some outcome because all the others can say: I didn't vote
    yes on this on.)

- Point G mentions consumers, but producers aren't mentioned anywhere.
   While it is fair to expect that we need more care to make sure we look
   out for the needs of consumers, I think producers should also be
   mentioned, at the very least for completeness.

Regards,    Martin.

This looks good.

Regarding appeals -- perhaps we could make progress by listing possible =
destinations for appeals and their positive/negative aspects.

To get us started:

* The IESG -- not a good idea; only the IETF. Already represented on the =
approval group.
* The IAB -- Better than IESG in that it has a broader/long-term =
function, but also represented on the approval group.
* Internet Society BoT (or Chair) -- has appropriate scope / distance; =
relationship to Series is a bit fuzzy?

Any other candidates?

Cheers,

Thanks Martin,

Again, I'm not in the business of fighting for the rights of straw men. =
They are unionised and can stand up for themselves (provided they have =
access to a broomstick).

But just to explain my thinking...

> Looks good to me, except for two points:
>
> - You still have the approval threshold at 1 YES. As others also have
>   said, this is not appropriate for the topics at hand.

I wonder what the benefit of setting the threshold higher is.
It would probably be benign to set it higher given the commentary on "no =
position" and "abstain" since the absence of a Discuss is otherwise a =
Yes.
But I don't see what we get by setting it higher. Perhaps I missed =
something.

> The 'abstain' should probably also go.
> (second point G, with some influence on point F)
> (In the IESG, it's okay that a draft be approved essentially on the
>  responsibility of a single AD; it should never happen that we have
>  something RFC-related approved and later, one AB member gets blamed
>  for some outcome because all the others can say: I didn't vote
>  yes on this on.)

So many points =F0=9F=98=8A

- It may be popular in Western democracies to blame the people who voted =
for X, but we all know that the people who didn't vote are equally to =
blame. So I don't hold with this "blame" thing, and I don't think I've =
seen it on the IESG ever.

- The IESG does not approve stuff on the responsibility of a single AD. =
Just not how it works.

- That the IESG doesn't have many Yes ballots is a distressing but =
irrelevant issue in this context.

- None of this is the point of an Abstain. I see two chief reasons:
   - If the WG decides to have a proposal where the ISE is paid per RFC, =
I would expect
     the ISE to object at first and then move to an Abstain. It would be =
highly inappropriate
     to ballot Yes on the proposal.
   - If a voting member feels "in their gut" that a proposal is a bad =
idea and can't be
     convinced otherwise, they may still realise (either through =
discussion or through
     the single Discuss resolution procedure) that they should not block =
the proposal.
     It would be odd for them to say Yes in this situation. What else =
can they do to
     "get out of the way"?

> - Point G mentions consumers, but producers aren't mentioned anywhere.

No objection to calling out "producers". In my mind a producer is also a =
consumer.

Hello Adrian,

Many thanks for your detailed answer.

I still feel that changing RFC-related stuff with one Yes and the rest 
(four or five or even more) of the responsible board in one way or 
another not really engaged is just somehow fundamentally wrong.

More details below.

Good to know. Was maybe the wrong way for me to explain my doubts.

I think that cases such as this a) should be quite infrequent even among 
the already rather low expected number of overall documents, b) would 
better be handled by general abstention rules for which we don't really 
need a special category, and c) shouldn't happen to the extent that 
there's only one member left who can say YES (i.e. in cases like the 
above, I would find it doubly important that the board members not 
affected by the pay change would all or at least in a strong majority 
approve of the proposal).

I'm fine with this, as long as this is e.g. a single member, or a small 
minority if the number of members is higher. But if n-1 members have to 
get out of their way so that the single YES vote can move things 
forward, then for me, there's something fundamentally wrong.

Of course producers are also consumers. But we need to look out for 
their needs *as producers*, too, not only as consumers.

appeals.  The ISOC BoT could be a second level for non-technical =

Well, that=E2=80=99s a question:

What is the likely nature of the appeal?  If it is a question of whether =
or not the DISCUSSes are permitted, that seems pretty close to =
technical.  Will this change harm the series?  Will this change harm the =
stream?  Who gets to second guess on that?  Anyone?  Or are we talking =
about process appeals a=E2=80=99la were A-G properly followed?

All,

As a co-chair, I=E2=80=99m really encouraged by the response to =
Adrian=E2=80=99s proposal.  Thanks to Adrian and to everyone for finding =
common ground.  Seems to me that he has pretty much written our agenda =
for us.  My proposal is that we discuss his proposal and see if we can =
fill in the gaps a bit.

I also think there=E2=80=99s an open question hanging out there about =
the role of the RSE in all of this.  My suggestion is that we keep that =
in context as we go through this.  For us to succeed, there is still a =
need for people to show give and take on all sides.  But I am hopeful we =
will find yet more common ground in discussions.

Eliot

 Who gets to second guess on that?  Anyone?  Or are we talking about proc=
ess appeals a=E2=80=99la were A-G properly followed?

In the IETF process, the IAB's appeal role is limited by:

"is final with respect to the question of whether or
not the [Internet standards] procedures have been followed and with
respect to all questions of technical merit."

and the ISOC Board's role is limited by:

"only in cases in which the procedures
themselves (i.e., the procedures described in this document) are
claimed to be inadequate or insufficient to the protection of the
rights of all parties in a fair and open [Internet Standards] Process."

It seems to me we could wordsmith equivalent limits for this case,
basically by removing the words in brackets, as long as the IAB and
ISOC Board's roles are carefully limited.

(I also believe that at the end of all this, the IAB Charter will
need a little tweak, but that can be left aside for now.)

Regards
   Brian C

Very good question.  We do need to avoid a turtles all the way down type 
of problem though.

Maybe we do this slightly differently - have the bodies that send the AB 
members be able to override the vote of their AB member(s) through a 
majority vote of their own?  That would cover 4 of the votes on the AB. 
The request to override would take the form of an appeal and each body 
would use its own procedures to discuss the request and then vote.  The 
RSE wouldn't get a vote, but any Nomcom selected members would (Nomcom 
does not direct their vote).   Majority of those voting (including the 
directed votes by the sending bodies) will override the decision no 
matter how bad it might be for the series.

Mostly, I think there's not going to be a lot of output where a 
traditional appeal makes sense which makes the normal "who resolves the 
appeals" process kind of an iffy fit.

Mike

So if I think that the IESG representative represented incorrectly, I co=
uld take that up with the IESG?  That sounds like it could work.  There =
isn't similar recourse for the ISE, but I think that is entirely consist=
ent with the nature of that position.

&gt;&gt; <br>
&gt;&gt; 1. At point C there is the concept of a &quot;community last call&=

&gt;&gt; Decision-making procedures<br>
&gt;&gt; <br>

&gt;&gt; It is unclear whether this step (corresponding to IETF last call) =
exists and<br>
&gt;&gt; how it would be operated. Further discussion needed per Martin and=

&gt;&gt; D. Participation by members of the approval group<br>
&gt;&gt; As noted in steps A and B, participation in WG work by members of =
the<br>
&gt;&gt; approval group is expected.<br>
&gt;&gt; It is understood that, from time to time, a member of the approval=

&gt;&gt; they are encourage to send delegates.<br>
&gt;&gt; <br>
&gt;&gt; E. Discussion by the approval group<br>
&gt;&gt; The approval group shall discuss the output of the WG. <br>
&gt;&gt; Such discussion is to take place normally within 2 weeks of the WG=

&gt;&gt; The 2 week period may be stretched by holidays or IETF meetings, b=

&gt;&gt; The approval group shall maintain a list of reasons for a Discuss =
ballot. A<br>
&gt;&gt; Discuss that does not conform to one of these reasons shall not be=
 valid,<br>
&gt;&gt; and must be re-balloted.<br>
&gt;&gt; An initial draft of this list is as follows:<br>

&gt;&gt; - The proposal would cause significant harm to the series<br>
&gt;&gt; - The proposal would cause inconvenience to a group of consumers, =

, there is<br>

at is, work fails to proceed<br>

&gt;&gt; I. Single Discuss resolution<br>
&gt;&gt; In the event of there being exactly one Discuss ballot, and there =
being no<br>
&gt;&gt; timely progress to agreement between the WG and the member of the =
approval<br>
&gt;&gt; group who issued the ballot, the WG may request that the approval =
group<br>
&gt;&gt; exercise an exception resolution process as follows:<br>
&gt;&gt; - The approval group will discuss the concern giving rise to the b=
allot and<br>

&gt;&gt; - If the Discuss is sustained, return to step H<br>
&gt;&gt; - If the work is released, the Discuss ballot shall be changed to =

With those definitions, I sure hope all of the members of the approval 
body are delegates, that is, they are free to make decisions using their 
skills.  (If they do it wrong, and they are sent from a body, then the 
body should replace them.)

Yours,
Joel

That would cover 4 of the votes on the AB. The request to override would take the form of an appeal and each body would use its own procedures to discuss the request and then vote.  The RSE wouldn't get a vote, but any Nomcom selected members would (Nomcom does not direct their vote).   Majority of those voting (including the directed votes by the sending bodies) will override the decision no matter how bad it might be for the series.

Trying to avoid simple terms with ambiguous meaning.

There are probably some more shades of gray:
- Taking every decision back to the delegating body and just serving
   as a messenger.
- Taking important decisions or decisions where it's not clear
   what the interest of the delegating body is back to that body.
- Representing the interests of the delegating body on their own,
   but informally exchanging opinions with others in the delegating
   body.
- Representing only the interests of the delegating body, but doing
   that on their own, i.e. without checking back.
- Representing both the interests of the delegating body and the
   overall interest of the series (with similar variations as above).
- Serving on behalf of a delegating body, but with a duty to care
   for the overall 'cause' first and foremost.

In addition to that, it is well possible that people from different 
bodies will be selected with different criteria or purposes in mind. In 
some cases, such as the ISE, it will most probably the same person, and 
this person may have difficulties separating their ISE position from 
their position on the AB. Some bodies may select people who are good at 
coordinating back, and watch closely. Others may select people who they 
trust to do the right thing, and then not care anymore.

My preference would be to have the AB members acting on their own 
(without direction) and both in the overall interest of the series as 
well as the specific concerns of their streams, in a balanced way. I 
think this is closest to what happens anyway in other, similar cases 
(such as the ex officio member of the IESG from the IAB,...), and is 
also closest to common sense.

Regards,   Martin.

I think this is an interesting list of experts. Their blog is
a class act. Obviously the APA is a much bigger publishing operation
than the RFC Editor, but one part-timer seems like a minimum for us:

Brian,

Yes.  

It may be worth noting that most professional societies that
publish one or more journals or similar publications (online or
off), including ACM, IEEE, or, to venture a bit further across
the pond, the Royal Statistical Society, the International
Statistical Institute, and many others have similar groups,
often extending well beyond style and perhaps organized
differently.  And, of course, so do ISO and ITU and, as far as I
know, every major technical or scientific publisher.

A more interesting question for us might be _why_  they have
them.  There is a short answer using your example and that may
be worth thinking about.  Expertise in psychology -- either
writing about it or reading materials about the subject-- does
not imply expertise in publications, writing style, or, in many
cases, even terminology.  It is entirely reasonable to trust
IETF consensus in matters of networking and network technology
within its scope.  Believing that IETF consensus is the best way
to make decisions or even means anything when the vast majority
of IETF participants have little or no publications expertise
other than maybe having written Internet Drafts that become RFCs
or having read RFCs and many other things (in one or more
languages) is, at best, a little strange.

best,
    john

Yes, and then we still need the RFC editor for all the non-style work.
