just a remark here. In the RFC 3066bis Last Call case the IETF has
the capacity not only to "police" but to "impose" and "force". This
is the case when a memo documents a IANA registry. In the case of a
standard track memo, there can be an appeal before it is imposed. It
seems not in the case of a BCP.
Wrong. IESG approvals of a standards track draft or of a BCP are equally
subject to appeal within two months.
Dear Brian,
I do not say that BCP are not subject to appeal, but that in the case of
a standard track an appeal delays the enforcement and that in the case
of BCP it does not. My sources are quoted below.
I have no idea what you mean. Neither IETF standards nor BCPs are enforced
by anybody - they are what the standards community calls voluntary standards.
(I am not referring to our own process BCPs in this statement.)
Brian
