one of the icann ssac (then "secsac") consensus processes i am most proud to have been part of was this, in 2004:
http://www.icann.org/en/groups/ssac/report-redirection-com-net-09jul04-en.pdf indeed, this document and the process followed in creating it may still stand today, as ssac's finest hour. see especially section 2.3, "design principles and good practice in the internet technical community", starting on page 8. unless i can think of anything new to say on this topic, this will be my final comment on this thread. consensus tally people: i'm "yes we must document it, but we must also explicitly withhold recommendation of it, both in the introduction section and in some kind of applicability section down near the iana considerations." vixie _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
