Hi Lawrence

Thanks for sharing your view on the Enumservice registration process wrt. 
draft-goix-appsawg-enum-sn-service-00.txt. And thanks Rich for spotting 
this I/D and forwarding it to the ENUM list.

It appears to me that the authors simply have not read RFC 6117 too 
thoroughly, and therefore don't follow the RFC-6117-process.

However, I am not worried at this point in time, as the I/D is a -00 
individual submission. Furthermore, before any Enumservice advances, it 
has to go through my hands, and I will ensure each proposal gets 
sufficient community review (in particular ENUM community), before any 
decision is made. Thus, not-follow-the-process simply results in delay, 
which the authors otherwise could avoid.

Should I happen to meet the authors in Paris, I'll talk to them about 
this.

I hope this addresses your concerns.

cheers,
  Bernie, IESG Designated Expert for ENUM


PS: And no, we are not intending to update RFC 6117 any time soon... ;-)
