A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories.

	Title           : RFC Editor Model (Version 2)
	Author(s)       : Olaf M. Kolkman
                           Joel M. Halpern
	Filename        : draft-iab-rfc-editor-model-v2-03.txt

    The RFC Editor performs a number of functions that may be carried out
    by various people or entities.  The RFC Editor model described in
    this document divides the responsibilities for the RFC Series into
    three functions: The RFC Series Editor, the RFC Production Center,
    and the RFC Publisher.  The Internet Architecture Board (IAB)
    oversight by way of delegation to the RFC Series Oversight Committee
    (RSOC) is described, as is the relationship between the IETF
    Administrative Oversight Committee (IAOC) and the RSOC.  This
    document reflects the experience gained with RFC Editor Model version
    1, documented in [RFC5620] and obsoletes that document.

RFC format: any discussions at the Paris IETF?

Hi there,

now that we have a RSE, are we planning to brainstorm on potential RFC 
format changes in Paris?

Best regards, Julian

Hi Julian,

I am happy to start the conversation, but I'm not quite ready to pop to
the top of my stack yet.  Right now, I'm focused on a) getting my feet
underneath me as RSE, b) getting the Style Guide revised, and c)
figuring out some operational issues in how to implement RFC 5620.  I
think more serious format discussions are going to come in later this year.

Heather,

The proposal sounds like a good basis for having an informal face-2-face, to 
generate discussion.  In effect, it would be a getting-acquainted chat, having a 
specific topic, rather than being entirely free-form.

I think it would be fine to class it merely as 'starting a discussion' rather 
than 'make decisions' or 'consider proposals' or anything indicating an intent 
to take any near-term action.

Such a discussion might also let you see how intertwined many of us find the Style Guide and the future of the format.

Should we try to find a time slot that works for everybody interested?

If at all possible, yes.  It always helps to have a face to go with
the flamage, and this topic evokes some impressively strong opinions.

I'd be happy to do a three minute preso outlining some of the issues
that have come up over the years, e.g., stability, long term
readability, non-ASCII author names, non-ASCII other text, graphics,
searchability, and document structure or the lack thereof.

R's,
John

Re: RFC format: any discussions at the Paris IETF?

FWIW, won't be there but it might be worth discussing the editing tools that are supported.

E.g., I use MS Word to write RFCs (See RFC 5385), which for me is hugely more efficient than XML.
