The RFC Acknowledgement

2013-02-08 21:12:10
Hi folks,

 I am wondering how author/ietf-editor fill in the acknowledgement
section in the RFCs or I-Ds. Does it make sense in IETF, or left for
author opinion? I am getting requests from IETF WGs, IESG, and IAB for
comments. My question is do you *make acknowledgements* in I-Ds or
just *take comments* for I-Ds?

IMO we get last call request for comments because RFC production is
all about getting volunteering comments from Internet community to
make I-Ds better, so does all I-Ds acknowledge (ACK) to any input
comment before the last call and after or it is only before last
call?, and if it gets submitted to IESG/IAB, and we comment does that
have no ACK in I-D?

 I sometimes feel discouraged to participate in any world work if the
process does not involve my existance, just used with ignoring ACK of
the reviewers. IMO any comment has value to the authors (e.g. some
think only experts' comments are important to ACK) and to IETF,
otherwise, we may delete valuable ACKs in IETF, which is not right.

Best Regards

AB
