This whole massive set of five draft-leg-xed-* documents is going
to be quite a mouthful for the IESG to chew. They obviously require
specialist review, and I don't expect this to come from Gen-ART.

Document: Abstract Syntax Notation X (ASN.X)
Reviewer: Joel Halpern
Review Date:  January 26, 2007
IETF LC End Date:
IESG Telechat date: (if known)
Intended Status: Proposed Standard

Summary: I presume this document is ready for publication as a proposed standard.

Comments:
I presume someone (in addition to the author) who is very familiar with ASN.1 has gone over this.

While an interesting piece of work, it is not clear why this is being published as a Proposed Standard RFC by the IETF. It seems to be much more a W3C kind of document.

I presume the extensive provision for encoding instructions, which would not appear in a native ASN.1 document, is consistent with the anticipated use of this document, whatever that may be. I will say that the need to repeatedly specify the effect of the encoding instructions makes reading this somewhat difficult document (at least difficult for one who is not current on ASN.1) even harder.
