1.a) Yes, the WG Chair has reviewed this version of the document.

1.b) Yes it has had adequate WG review.

1.c) A security area review would be helpful.

1.d) There is a potential overlap between the RAQMON protocol and
      the IPFIX and/or RTCP-XR work, but there are enough differences
      in applicability and complexity that this should not be
      a significant issue.  RAQMON is an extensible, distributed,
      SNMP-based monitoring system, integrated with the RMON
      family of MIB modules.  As such, it is intended to be applicable
      to many different types of protocols.  If a specialized
      protocol for VoIP monitoring is desired, then RTCP-XR
      should probably be used instead.  If SNMP and/or RMON
      integration are not desired, then IPFIX would be a
      suitable choice.

1.e) Five or more WG members from independent organizations,
      not including all of the co-author organizations,
      have shown interest in implementing and/or using the RAQMON work.

1.f) No appeals have been threatened.
      There is one dissenting opinion against publication
      of this document.

1.g) There is one minor ID-nit that will be fixed
      before RFC publication. (See ID-nit log below).

1.h) Yes, references are split.
     Yes, there are references to unpublished documents,
     (the other RAQMON drafts), but they are also ready
     for publication.

1.j) I-D Submission Summary

Technical Summary

    There is a need to monitor end devices such as IP phones, pagers,
    Instant Messaging clients, mobile phones, and various other hand-held
    computing devices.  This memo extends the remote network monitoring
    (RMON) family of specifications to allow real-time quality of service
    (QoS) monitoring of various applications that run on these devices,
    and allows this information to be integrated with the RMON family
    using the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).  This memo
    defines the framework, architecture, relevant metrics, and transport
    requirements for real-time quality of service monitoring of
    applications.

Working Group Summary

   The RMONMIB Working Group has consensus to publish this document
   as a Proposed Standard.  The WG had some difficulty in reaching
   consensus on the details of the base metrics included in RAQMON
   reports.

Protocol Quality

   RAQMON is based on a a proprietary version of technology
   implemented and deployed in products by Avaya, Inc.
   This document has been reviewed by Andy Bierman, Alan Clark,
   and Randy Presuhn, and Steve Waldbusser.
