Consideration of draft-lior-radius-attribute-type-extension-02.txt

2007-07-05 06:45:03

The RADEXT WG has a charter deliverable for extensions to the RADIUS attribute 
space. The apparent consensus in the WG is to solve a very simple set of 
problems, including the pending exhaustion of the standard RADIUS attribute 
space, a consistent mechanism for application layer fragmentation and 
reassembly for Diameter interoperability, and a consistent mechanism for 
grouping of attributes for data structuring, also for Diameter 
interoperability. The structure of the extended attribute format currently 
under consideration may require changes in various RADIUS extensions drafts in 
RADEXT and other working groups. This assumes that at least some of these 
documents will ultimately use the RADIUS extended attribute allocations. Given 
thepotential widespread impact of attribute extension, the RADEXT WG Chairs are 
requesting that the RADEXT WG and all other affected WGs please review the 
following document: 
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-lior-radius-attribute-type-extension-02.txt
 This is the third (and last) review request relating to this document.  On 
December 5, 2006 a call for review of the RADIUS extended attribute document 
was issued to the RADEXT WG:  
http://ops.ietf.org/lists/radiusext/2006/msg01002.htmlUnfortunately, no review 
comments were received relating to this document.  Since the call for review 
occurred during the holiday the call for review as reissued on March 20, 
2007:http://ops.ietf.org/lists/radiusext/2007/msg00161.html This request did 
not garner much response either, so the call for review is beingreissued one 
last time, in order to gauge whether there is sufficient interest in this work 
item.  Please send comments to the RADEXT WG mailing list 
(radiusext(_at_)ops(_dot_)ietf(_dot_)org)
indicating whether you believe the document should be adopted as a RADEXT WG 
work item.  You need not have any comments on the document in order to respond 
affirmatively;  however, if you do not believe the document should be adopted, 
it would 
be helpful to explain why not.  If there are specific issues relating to the 
document,
these should be submitted using the RADEXT Issue Tracker template, which can be 
found at:http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/RADEXT/ This Request for Review will 
last until July 22, 2007.
