Re: AD review of draft-ietf-nfsv4-rpcrdma-cm-pvt-data

I might be concerned that the specific document URL (...dl/7859) might not be a stable one for reference. Perhaps the RFC Editor has some procedure for this type of situation?

One mitigating factor here is that it's an Informative reference, and honestly is mentioned only in passing in the I-D. Perhaps we could consider dropping it altogether.

An alternative is to pursue the same type of standards-sharing agreement. Such a situation exists between IETF and IEEE, and we have been able to designate specific individuals with access as liaisons (David Black has done this for the various iSCSI specs, I believe). Because the IBTA RoCEv2 Annex has certain IETF-relevant items (e.g. its port number assignment), there may be other motivations to create this between the two organizations.

Hi,

Regarding the URL: I think you can take the URL for the document from this page. It is at least publicly available and I was able to download the spec:

https://www.infinibandta.org/ibta-specifications-download/<https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.infinibandta.org%2Fibta-specifications-download%2F&data=02%7C01%7Cttalpey%40microsoft.com%7C70102a0c18354553a6ce08d761d1ef84%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637085426610661285&sdata=sTL2cac%2BupWXK4cKCQMiRbxz9nDsXqvGiMnIgnHz0Fo%3D&reserved=0>

So I think the document URL you want to include is this one:
https://cw.infinibandta.org/document/dl/7859<https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcw.infinibandta.org%2Fdocument%2Fdl%2F7859&data=02%7C01%7Cttalpey%40microsoft.com%7C70102a0c18354553a6ce08d761d1ef84%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637085426610661285&sdata=4IEfxL%2FkSlN0qCCGmJde0o1Im3MX%2Fdy8n6PwKhDqXYI%3D&reserved=0>

Cheers

>Well, that's unfortunate. That's the same URL that's cited in RFC 8166.

Also gets a 404.
