All;
Are there any more comments on the SOWs?
This item will be on the IAOC agenda for its call on 22 August.

The RFC Series Editor (RSE) is proposing changes to the Statements of Work
(SOW) for the RFC
Production Center (RPC) and the RFC Publisher. The IAOC wants to receive
community input prior to
negotiating the proposed changes with the contractor. Community input will
be discussed with the RSE
prior to negotiations and reviewed by the IAOC.
In forwarding the proposed Statements of Work the RSE said: "The changes
seek to make the SoWs
more current [implementing RFC 6635] and specific, correcting the issues of
"multiple masters"
directing the RPC and Publisher, as well as preparing the way for a more
significant revision to the SoWs
when the RFC Format changes are operationalized. The SoWs have also been
reviewed and supported
by the RSOC [RFC Series Oversight Committee]. We consider the changes within
the SoWs critical to the
clear function of the RPC and Publisher, but suggest that the changes do not
imply a significant change
in responsibility for the RPC or Publisher."
The proposed SOWs, the current SOWs and a diff file for each can be found
here under Community
Review: <http://iaoc.ietf.org/rfps.html>
We appreciate the community's input and look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks
