> Subject: errata processing for TSV area RFCs
>
> Hi,
>
> attached to this email you'll find a list of all errata that have been
> reported on documents produced by the transport area, or on documents
> that are otherwise related to the transport area (documents that pre-
> date the current IETF structure or individual submissions).
>
> I'd like to ask the chairs of the WGs that produced the respective
> documents to please lead the effort to determine whether each listed
> errata is valid or not. Here's the process you should follow:
>
> (1) Make note of the "id" for each errata posted against one of your
> WG documents
>
> (2) Go to
http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?eid=XXX where
> XXX is that errata ID
>
> (3) Copy the results of that page in to an email to the document
> authors and ask them to comment on the validity of the errata. CC your
> ADs. You may also CC the WG list if you feel that broader community
> input would be helpful and/or if the original authors are
> unresponsive. Give them a deadline of a two weeks or so.
>
> (4) The purpose of this discussion is to determine that (a) the
> indicated errata type (technical/editorial) is correct, and (b) to
> decide how the errata should be handled. For the latter, there are
> three options:
>
> o Approved - The erratum is appropriate under the criteria below
> and
> should be available to implementors or people deploying the RFC.
>
> o Rejected - The erratum is in error, or proposes a change to the
> RFC that should be done my publishing a new RFC that replaces the
> current RFC. In the latter case, if the change is to be
> considered for future updates of the document, it should be
> proposed using channels other than the errata process, such as a
> WG mailing list.
>
> o Hold for Document Update - The erratum is not a necessary update
> to the RFC. However, any future update of the document might
> consider this erratum, and determine whether it is correct and
> merits including in the update.
>
> (5) After that deadline, judge the consensus on the errata, and
> conclude the discussion phase by sending an email summarizing your
> decision to the recipients of the original email. CC your ADs. The ADs
> will then update the posted errata in the RFC Editor's database.
>
> In order to help you determine the correct handling for the errata in
> step (4), the IESG has come up with a few guidelines:
>
> 1. Only errors that could cause implementation or deployment
> problems or significant confusion should be Approved.
>
> 2. Things that are clearly wrong but could not cause an
> implementation or deployment problem should be Hold for Document
> Update.
>
> 3. Errata on obsolete RFCs should be treated the same as errata on
> RFCs that are not obsolete where there is strong evidence that
> some people are still making use of the related technology.
>
> 4. Trivial grammar corrections should be Hold for Document Update.
>
> 5. Typographical errors which would not cause any confusions to
> implementation or deployments should be Hold for Document Update.
>
> 6. Changes which are simply stylistic issues or simply make things
> read better should be Hold for Document Update.
>
> 7. Changes that modify the working of a protocol to something that
> might be different from the intended consensus when the document
> was approved should be either Hold for Document Update or
> Rejected. Deciding between these two depends on judgment.
> Changes that are clearly modifications to the intended consensus,
> or involve large textual changes, should be Rejected. In unclear
> situations, small changes can be Hold for Document Update.
>
> 8. Changes that modify the working of a process, such as changing
> an
> IANA registration procedure, to something that might be different
> from the intended consensus when the document was approved should
> be Rejected.
>
> Also note that you should involve your AD at any time when you feel
> the discussion would benefit from this.
>
> All that said, below are our current errata, for your processing
> pleasure. Please contact Magnus and me if you have any questions about
> this process.
>
> Lars
>
> PS: It'd be great if we managed to process some of these by
> Minneapolis!
>
> PPS: In the future, we'll forward newly posted erratas directly to the
> appropriate WG chairs. The procedure for processing these is the same
> as above. (Save this email.)
