Speaking as co-Chair:

A virtual interim meeting is certainly an option and available. Meetings can also be held in person but I’m assuming you’re asking for a virtual meeting. Planning is different if it’s going to be a meeting in person.

Let’s first start with who is willing and would attend the interim meeting? Let’s make sure we have more than a few people. Would folks please respond on list if they will attend? Based on the discussion I’m presuming that Andy, Pawel, Scott, Murray, Jasdip, and Mario are at least interested.

In addition, is there anyone who would like to chair the meeting? It’s not required that one of the co-Chairs do it and it seems to me that the folks in the discussion should be able to manage the meeting themselves. In addition to managing the discussion you’d have to make sure there’s an attendance record and provide a meeting summary for the record (which really only has to contain action items). Your Chairs will make sure the meeting gets set up. Please indicate if you’re willing to lead the discussion.

Finally, note that we’ll need at least two weeks notice for the meeting. So, once we see that we have a reasonable set of people, I propose to use a Doodle to find a date and time for the meeting.

Thanks,

Jim

    Hi all,

    Since this Extensions draft would be a useful contribution for
    clarifying the RDAP extensibility, and that there are other drafts
    waiting on it for a more definitive naming guidance, would it be
    more productive if we held an interim meeting before the next IETF
    to focus on ironing out any disagreements, especially the one
    about bare identifiers?

    Jim/Antoin/Orie, please advise on this matter.

    Thanks,

    [PK] Well, I don't like framing of my position with a lot of rhetoric.
    "violation of the rules" sounds so obvious that it should be
    forbidden,
    that it frames directly any disagreement into a difficult position to
    argument for it.

    In fact "the rules" set in 2.1 of RFC9083 are no rules, but a
    recommendation (SHOULD) itself. So I argument actually to keep the
    status quo of RFC9083 as opposed to defining new rules as now the
    change
    of -05 proposes.

    Also in the original E-mail you mentioned "complex set of rules" that
    hinder interoperability without actually any evidence which these
    are or
    would be. I went though all changes in -05 and I didn't find any point
    where the rules got simplified in any way.

    Finally I argument that the provisions of STD 95 are absolutely
    sufficient to maintain interoperability. By including the changes of
    -05, even though the document ought to guide extension authors not the
    implementations, it might either misguide the implementations which
    would implement stricter rules and not be able to handle extension
    from
    before extension draft publication as RFC - so the interoperability
    would suffer in the end.

    [PK] That is correct and likely right to do so. Worth mentioning that
    the -05 document uses "RECOMMENDED" in 9 places and "SHOULD" in 39
    so I
    really don't take it as a valid criteria to decide whether to change
    RFC9083 / STD 95 or not.

    [PK] As mentioned above, "the rules" are recommendations, so there
    is no
    violation taking place.

    Kind Regards,

    Pawel
