a couple of IETFs ago, it was suggested at the ngtrans wg meeting
that the document draft-ietf-ngtrans-ipv6-smtp-requirement-xx "should
be handed to SMTP experts in application area". since then, there
has been no actions taken. the fact is, there is no active working
group for SMTP and email-related activities. also ngtrans wg is
concluded. therefore, the document is in "zombie" state.
I still want the document (or the contents of it) be published, as
it contains critical guidelines for IPv6/v4 dual stack SMTP operation.
I would like to ask IESG to decide and take appropriate actions,
such as:
- poke SMTP experts, let them work on the topic and produce an RFC
- let me handle the document as an individual submission and publish
it as an RFC
thanks.
