Naming conventions for Sieve RFCs

2007-08-10 09:19:53

Did we decide on a naming convention for Sieve extensions?  We seem to have
either "Sieve Email Filtering: ..." or "Sieve Extension: ..." and I think it
would be helpful to be consistent.  Looking for a precedent from the
existing RFCs we have:

RFC3431 Sieve Extension: Relational Tests. W. Segmuller. December 2002.
     (Format: TXT=12849 bytes) (Status: PROPOSED STANDARD)

RFC3598 Sieve Email Filtering -- Subaddress Extension. K. Murchison.
     September 2003. (Format: TXT=11151 bytes) (Status: PROPOSED STANDARD)

RFC3685 SIEVE Email Filtering: Spamtest and VirusTest Extensions. C.
     Daboo. February 2004. (Format: TXT=17436 bytes) (Status: PROPOSED
     STANDARD)

RFC3894 Sieve Extension: Copying Without Side Effects. J. Degener.
     October 2004. (Format: TXT=9018 bytes) (Status: PROPOSED STANDARD)

http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/sieve-charter.html lists the other
I-Drafts out there for Sieve and I think "Sieve Email Filtering: ..." has
the majority vote just now.  That means we should change these if possible:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sieve-variables
Sieve Extension: Variables

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sieve-notify-08
Sieve Extension: Notifications

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sieve-3431bis-04
Sieve Extension: Relational Tests
