There's a gigantic difference between the two in terms of
what's appropriate for a standards track RFC and what is not.
Disagree.
First, there was no formal proposal here. It was a starter suggestion
for an Alert Status idea, i.e. LOW, MED, HIGH, etc and I provided an
example using one code with a HIGH alert and what that could mean
based on severity level, i.e. Notify Local Operator.
You seem to reject the whole idea which is funny since this tangent
thread started as a Moore response to the basic idea of the status
code parts to direct actionable "blame" (client vs receiver) and you
agreed and followed up:
"Perhaps the proposal would benefit from making
such distinctions in the new codes it's registering."
It all sound pretty similar too me - the end result is the same.
