The -02 version of the technical publication requirements is available at http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-mankin-pub-req-02.txt.  It is an extensive rewrite of the -01 version with an eye to taking a more systematic approach.  The new version is basically a laundry list of requirements (both current and potential) against a technical publisher.  The goal is to provide a framework in which we can decide what the IETF wants a technical publisher to do and what level of performance we want to see.

Comments eagerly awaited.

Stephen Hayes

I think it was brought up on the techspec mailing list that we
do have a:

 Potential requirement: We need a source code control system
       into which the source material for an IETF spec is 
       created/mainatained.
       The IETF Technical Publisher must make any changes to
       the source material and ensure that an up to date source
       is checked into the source code control system when an
       RFC is published.

We can discuss which forms of source files would need to be handled.
But one way or another I think we really need to get an up to date
source file for all RFCs, so that future fixes/changes/additions/
extensions can easily be made, either by the same author/editor or
by new WG authors/editors.

I think we have a Potential requirement that individual submissions
be separate from IETF submitted documents and that those individual
submissions do not belong in the "IETF Technical Publication process"
Or to word it positive:

 Potential requirement: Only IETF submitted documents (i.e. through
 the IESG, IAB or IRTF) are part of the IETF Publication Process

I am really surprised to not see some sort of requirement that
we get a tech spec published within a reasonable amount of time.

SO I would say:

  Potential Requirement:  After IESG approval of a document, 
  the IETF Technical Publisher must publish the document within
  2 months (unless blocking issues come up during that period)

Blocking issues would be non-response on AUTH48 ??
Or a normatibve reference not being available.
or some such,

The idea is to ensure that we get a reasonable processing speed
after document approval. I personally would like 1 month much better,
but am OK with 2 months. Any longer period seems unacceptable to me.

I agree. And to be clear, I'd want the time frames to be something
like:

   SHOULD be published within 4 weeks, MUST be published within 8.

Yes.

Actually, no.

This is probably getting beyond techspec, but over the years I have
become increasingly uncomfortable with documents that are approved
(i.e., in the RFC editor queue) but that are blocked on normative
references. Some reasons include:

   - by definition, a document isn't complete without its normative
     dependences. One cannot properly evaluate it without its
     dependencies also being available for review. Indeed, in some
     cases, text changes are needed in a document if one of its
     normative dependencies changes.

   - documents in the publication queue that are blocked tend to get
     forgotten (by the WGs), reducing the pressure on getting the
     normative dependencies completed. (Indeed, we want the exact
     opposite!)

   - I think we'd be better served having the equivalent of a new ID
     tracker state called something like "approved, but blocked on
     normative references", so that the document is clearly not in the
     publication queue (yet).

Part of the reason for the above is to make it more clear that once a
document is in the publication queue, "blocking issues" should really
be rare exceptions.

There is currently a statistical requirement in section 4.1

   o  Potential Req-TIMEFRAMES-1 - The IETF technical publisher should 
      have an goal of 90% of documents published within x weeks of 
      approval.  Documents held up due to references or due to a 
      protocol action should be excluded from this statistic. 

Where the x was intended to be filled in after discussion.  It could be modified as:

Potential Req-TIMEFRAMES-1 - The IETF technical publisher should 
      have an goal of 90% of documents published within 4 weeks of 
      approval and all of the documents published within 8 weeks.  
	Documents held up due to references or due to a 
      protocol action should be excluded from this statistic. 

There are lots of ways to document a performance goal 
(avg, + 95% done by goal), tiered percentage goals.  They all work better
than a "should".

I don't think we should penalize the technical publisher if the 
necessary references are not available.  However I agree that we need a
way of making the blocking points visible.  The following requirements were
taken from section 3.11.  Do they address your concerns?

   o  Current Req-STATUSTRK-1 - The IETF technical publisher should 
      provide state information for each document in the publication 
      process. 

   o  Potential Req-STATUSTRK-2 - The IETF technical publisher should 
      integrate its state information with the IETF tools to provide 
      end-to-end status tracking of documents.  IETF documents should be 
      able to move seamlessly from the IETF tracking system into the 
      technical publication tracking system.   

   o  Potential Req-STATUSTRK-3  - The IETF technical publisher should 
      provide external visibility of not only the fact that a document 
      is in an extended waiting period, but also the token-holder and 
      circumstances of the wait.

Note that the first and third don't fully agree with each other. If 
we believe both of them (and I certainly do), the ID tracker state 
should prevent the IESG from evaluating the document. That is, there 
would be a pre-IESG-evaluation queue. Every document to be evaluated 
by the IESG goes into that queue, and leaves the queue when every 
normative reference is ready (which might be immediately).

There are a number of IESG folks on this list: does that sound 
reasonable? Or are there good reasons to evaluate documents before 
all their normative references are ready?

Yes; when the normative reference is to a document in the hands of a 
dependable but slow-moving group, and the document under discussion is in 
the hands of a group where the WG chair is begging us to approve the 
document and shut it down before the proponents completely change their 
minds about what they want Once Again..... or when the IESG all has the 
document and its issues clearly in mind, and delaying it 6 months would 
cause it to be swapped out of their active memory...

I think we're reasonably well served with marking the "ref wait" state as 
"waiting on the IETF to do something" rather than "waiting for the 
publisher to do something", and not changing where it occurs in the 
sequence.

In the real world of variable workloads, it can only be statistical.
Anything else is unrealistic.

I don't think that can be done except in the context of a bidding process.
There will be a direct tradeoff between the contract price and this goal,
and so it's not something that can be set in concrete except in the final
contract.

Also, because of the two month timeout in the RFC 2026 appeal process, it turns
out that our standards process actually implies that an RFC MUST NOT be published
until two months after approval.

Actually, this state does exist in the RFC Editor queue now,
under the name of MISSREF. There's been some debate whether it's better
to have it where it is (head of line) or at the tail of the edit queue,
but there it is. (Also see Potential Req-STATUSTRK-2.)

I think that would remove potential parallelism and would therefore be
a Bad Thing. It's perfectly reasonable to evaluate a draft knowing that
some of its normative dependencies are still being refined; generally
speaking an AD won't bring a draft forward until the dependencies
are getting ready to be ready.

Speaking as an individual:
I basically agree. IIRC I have supported this in earlier discussions.

However, I guess we only "move" the problem to an earlier point in the
process (a better point in my view), we do not really solve the problem.
It may however put some more pressure on documents authors to keep 
pushing and helping to complete the normative references as well.

I don't see that that follows - we can always declare the mis-published RFC 
Historical and publish a fixed one later, as we did with (for instance) the 
RFCs for RADIUS that came out with the wrong port numbers in them, or the 
SNMPv3 RFCs that turned out to have the wrong encrypted-values in the 
examples.

I don't think the harm from a couple of dead RFCs is big enough that we 
need to insist on the wait.

Personal comments:

Since you raise it, I'd like to take a slightly different cut.
Your statement isn't really a requirement, in fact.

There are good reasons to have a publication process that bypasses
IESG approval - it's one of the checks and balances in our system.
In fact, it has its own built-in check and balance, RFC 3932.

However, as the need for RFC 3932 shows, it's really illusory to
pretend that it's completely separate from the IETF community and
its processes. So I would suggest a new process.

1. There should be a process by which technical specifications that have
not been submitted for approval by the IESG are published.

2. They may not be standards track or BCP.

3. They must be published first as I-Ds.

4. The IETF establishes an independent review board (IRB) for such
documents, whose reviews shall be published.

5. If the IRB wishes to publish a draft, it must submit it to the IESG, not
for  approval, but for review according to the criteria in RFC 3932
(non conflict with IETF work).

6. In the event the the IESG recommends against publication and the IRB
decides to publish, a note written by the IESG must be included.

7. After that the draft goes to the technical publisher just like
an IESG-approved draft.

     Brian

I strongly concur. Our processes should (by default) be forward
looking. We should not be adding extra (and harmful) delay to our
processes in order to facilitate appeals, or those that would raise
them. Let's not have the cost outweigh the benefit!

With my IAOC hat on, I'm delighted with this draft - lots
of rather precise items that will help prepare the RFP.

Now here are my *personal* comments on the text.
(I could have split this into 9 separate messages
but that seemed over the top.)

> 3.8. Allocation of Permanent Stable Identifiers

Something needs to be said about the assignment of STD numbers
and STD names. I don't know if it fits here, but either it
has to be specified as an action by the publisher, or this job
has to be moved into the IETF process.

...
>    o  Potential Req- PERMID-2 - The IETF technical publisher should 
>       permit early allocation of stable identifiers for or by the IESG 
>       to satisfy referencing requirements of external bodies. 

Should the two-month appeal period be mentioned here?

> 3.9. Document Format Conversions 
...
>    o  Current Req-DOCCONVERT-1 - The IETF technical publisher should 
>       accept as input ascii text files and publish documents as ascii 
>       text files, postscript files, and pdf files.

There has to be something wrong there. When the PS or PDF version
contains graphics etc, surely the publisher must have accepted
another format than pure ASCII?

> 3.11. Publication Status Tracking

Should we also have a requirement to include normative reference
chains in the status tracking?

> 3.13. Exception Handling 

...
>    o  Current Req-EXCEPTIONS-2 - The IETF technical publisher should 
>       have the discretion to reject publication of an independent 
>       submission based upon feedback from reviewers. 

I don't think this is properly called an exception, and I think it
very much over-simplifies the issue - see my earlier message on
this topic.

>    o  Current Req-EXCEPTIONS-3 - The IETF technical publisher should 
>       permit documents to be put on hold awaiting the outcome of an 
>       appeal. 

Add: or a legal process.

> 3.15. Post Publication Corrections 

We need to say something about technical vetting of errata. They
can't just be published without checking them.
Is this a task for the publisher? Does the publisher need IETF support
for this?

> 3.16. Indexing: maintenance of the catalog 

I believe there is an important missing piece here, i.e. the creation
and maintenance of the hyperlinked index
(http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfcxx00.html today).

> 3.21. Tutorial and Help Services

Missing requirement: responding to indvidual email queries (with a ticket system)

> 4.1. Post-approval timeframes 
> 4.2. Publication Throughput

I think the metrics should include median dwell times as well as the 90th percentile
and throughput.

Yes, definitely. This helps people looking at the queue to understand 
why a document is not being worked on by the editor.

Fully agree. I recently had an issue where a disgruntled WG member 
who wasn't getting his way actually said "OK, I'll just get this as 
an errata after the RFC is published".

>Is this a task for the publisher? Does the publisher need IETF support
>for this?

It depends on whether or not you want the publisher to do technical 
evaluation work, or whether they really are a publisher. If we follow 
Brian's suggestion for a independent review board (IRB) and take the 
independent submission vetting out of the hands of the publisher, 
then the IRB could also vet any non-editorial errata as well. That 
seems like a clear separation of duties that would make it clearer 
what the published does and does not do. In the past few years, the 
number of non-editorial errata is quite small, so this should not add 
much work to the ERB.

Actually, I think it would make more sense for the IRB to vet errata for
independently published documents (ones they approved in the first place)
and for the IETF (either the pertinent WG if it still exists, or the area
directors?) to vet technical errata to IETF publications.

Sounds fine. That leaves out the independently published documents 
that were approved by the RFC Editor before the IRB appeared, but the 
number of errata for those is probably quite small and can be handled 
by the IRB as well.

I can buy this argument, but note that it is at least a clarification
if not an actual update to RFC 2026. And the notion of a withdrawn RFC
is new. So we have to be very clear about that.

There should be no reason to *withdraw* ("unpublish") the RFC, as I said in 
my previous mail. And the status for a superseded RFC is pretty clear: It's 
called "Historic".

Actually -- the scope of this discussion is *IETF* documents.

So, it would be appropriate to define what IETF technical publications
are (i.e., include IAB/IRTF/individual to AD?).  But, we scoped
this discussion to specifically avoid  the handling of independent
individual submissions...

... rathole.

Last I checked, independent individual submissions were not
part of this discussion.

I *assume* individual submissions that go to an AD
are considered IETF technical specifications (otherwise,
why is the IESG spending time on them?).

Req-EXCEPTIONS-2 doesn't belong in this document, as far as I can tell.

This is an important question to get sorted out.  And, it impacts
the (motivation for) the discussion of permanent stable identifiers
post-approval.

(STD series numbering is not the issue under discussion in
that requirement.  I had assumed/understood NEWTRK was going to
sort out what our document series are called/how they are handled,
and techspec should follow from that).

That's disappointing.

At the Vancouver meeting, I attempted to make the case that having a
lower-overhead archival publication track is important.  Something
like the RFC Editor's current ISR path (RFC3932) can help keep some of
the cruft out of the higher-overhead track -- in particular, it
provides a credible place for a WG to send work that the WG doesn't
have the resources or will to spend time on.

I think the existence of a lower-overhead archival publication
mechanism should be added to our requirements -- it needn't be the
current ISR/3932 process (though I think the ISR process could work),
it needn't be operated by the same entity that publishes IETF
documents (though it would make some amount of sense for it to be),
nor does it need to publish in the RFC series (though I'd prefer it
to) -- we just need the functionality.

I don't think we have to go into great depth about the details of the
lower-overhead archival track at this point, I just want its existence
to be documented as a requirement.

Leslie,

I think that is what I was trying to say in my posting.
Th revision I read seemed to include the individual submissions
to RFC-Editor and I thought we needed to exclude that from our
IETF requirements. 

I think I like your approach even better than mine. So do not make 
an explicit statement of one set of submission that is NOT included
(there could be thousands of such indeed), but instead do a very 
clear definition of documents that we DO consider to be IETF 
documents. Thanks for suggesting the better approach.

Bert

True - the techspec requirement is that the publisher should do
what the IETF process requires in the way of assigning STD and
BCP type designations.

We all agree it's a distinct topic. I would tend to argue for it
being in techspec scope, because I don't see where else it can
be discussed, but I suspect Leslie disagrees.

I think that in TechSpec we want to document our requirements for
an IETF publication process. Currently that is documents send from
IESG, IAB and IRTF to the RFC-Editor. I would think that it is
good to define those 3 types of documents as being the ones
we have been considering.

If in the future there are other categories, then I guess they
would ny default have the same requirements. If not, then we
may need to update the TechSpec document at that time.

The other place to discuss individual-submissions-directly-to-rfced
could be NewTrk or maybe general ietf mailing list. Or someone
could setup a separate list for that.

Just my (personal) thinking.

You're right about my disagreement :-)

I don't in any way disagree that it is an important
discussion to have.  But, the purpose of scoping
techspec was (the usual) one of identifying a problem
we could focus on and solve, without too many distractions.

And I stand by that scoping, here.

Leslie.

Agreed -- *whatever* designations are appropriate and
required for the technical specification process: "high fibre"
"so-5minutes-ago" "STD-Gold" "not-an-RFC", "BCP", whatever.

FWIW, RFC3932 has a taxonomy of documents:

My understanding is that techspec was chartered to address all but  
the last.

Once again, with feeling:

To avoid confusion, the RFC Editor uses the term "individual
submission" for a non-working group document that goes through the
IESG, shepherded by an AD, and arrives at the RFC Editor as an IETF
submission.  We use "independent submission", aka "RFC Editor
submissions", for a document that goes directly to the RFC Editor for
approval, independent of the IETF process.

We would like to suggest that using any other terminology at this
point would be enormously confusing.

RFC Editor/bb

Bob, I agree, but it's easy to accidentally transpose "individual"
and "independent".

Based upon the discussions so far, I have identified 7 issues associated with mankin-pub-req-03.  In 7 separate mails I have proposed a possible resolution of each issue.  I assume I will get feedback on these issues from those disagreeing.  Also, please let me know any issue I have missed.

My goal is to produce a new version of mankin-pub-req on Monday next week (January 30, 2006) so I would appreciate any comments by then.  My goal is to have a version that documents all the current and potential requirements.

After that we should then move on to the harder task of deciding which of those potential or current requirements should stay and which should go away.

Stephen Hayes

Requirement on a way to maintain and archive source files associated with a draft.

Proposed Resolution: Add in potential requirements along the lines of:

Potential Req-POSTCORR-4 - The IETF technical publisher should ensure that any source documents associated with a publication are also updated  in concert with their associated specifications.  

Potential Req-INDEX-5 - The IETF technical publisher should provide the permanent archival of any source documents associated with a published specification.

Does techspec (and the pub-req) draft address independent submissions?

Proposed Resolution: Scope the draft to indicate explicitly what is covered.

Update the scope section to indicate that this draft only addresses those documents submitted to the IETF via the IAB, IESG, or IRTF.  This includes individual submissions that go through the IETF.  It specifically excludes independent submissions that go directly to the Technical Publisher.  The handling of independent submissions may well be a requirement on the technical publisher, but it is not one associated with the IETF publication process and hence is outside the scope of this document.

The following requirement should be removed: 
Current Req-EXCEPTIONS-2 - The IETF technical publisher should have the discretion to reject publication of an independent submission based upon feedback from reviewers.

Requirement on ensuring that new versions of a spec includes errata changes on the previous version.

Proposed Resolution: No change to the requirements since this should be done by IETF and not by the technical publisher

However: add a bullet to Section 5 (IETF Implications of Technical Publication Requirements) indicating that this process needs to be specified in the IETF so that we don't loose track of it.

Requirement on what criteria to specify on how long to publish a document.

Proposed Resolution: Basically we are telling the technical publisher how high to jump.  So we can have endless arguments on how to measure it and what number we should pick.  I am going to throw out a number to get the fight started.  It may turn out that the final number will be based upon contractual agreements, but it is good to have a target to start with.

Potential Req-TIMEFRAMES-1 - The IETF technical publisher should have a goal of an average publication time of 4 weeks and 98% of all documents should be published within 8 weeks. Documents held up due to references or due to a protocol action should be excluded from this statistic. 

Potential Req-TIMEFRAMES-2 - The IETF technical publisher should have a goal of an average stable indentifier allocation time of 4 weeks and 98% of documents should have a stable identifier allocated within 8 weeks of approval. Documents held up due to references or due to a protocol action should be excluded from this statistic. 

Fulfiling these guidelines means that the publisher would have to publish before the appeals window.  Note however that the appeals process is only one mechanism.  A legal action challenging a document could occur months or even years after its publication.  A new potential requirement is added:

Potential Req-INDEX-6 - The IETF can indicate to the publisher that it should change the status of a document (e.g., to Historical) and this should be reflected in the index.

Add a bullet to Section 5 (IETF Implications of Technical Publication Requirements) indicating that the IETF needs to define a process to decide and inform the technical publisher of status changes to published documents as the result of an appeal, legal action, or some other procedural action.

Requirement on how to deal with extended waits on normative references

Proposed Resolution: The requirements documented in section 3.11 are not changed.  If the IETF decides to impose extra discipline and not send a document for publication until the references are available then that is not a technical publication issue.

If the technical publisher only accepts ASCII, what about graphics?

Proposed Resolution: Add a potential requirement along the lines of:

Potential Req-DOCCONVERT-3 - The technical publisher should accept supplemental source files that may contain information such as: code, formal descriptions (XML, ASN.1, etc.) graphics, data files, etc.

Requirement on the assignment of other identifiers than RFC numbers.

Proposed Resolution: Add in potential requirements along the lines of:

Potential Req- PERMID-3 - The IETF technical publisher should assign additional permanent identifiers associated with various classes of documents as directed by the IETF.

In section 5 (IETF Implications of Technical Publication Requirements) a bullet is added indicating that the classes of documents and the procedures for allocation of those numbers needs to be defined.

As a matter of fact, this is a current requirement.

As you note, there may be some debate on what "indicate" means.  Is a 
request by IESG or some other body enough?  Does this require an RFC? 
I think in the past all these have been done using a text in an RFC.

This is also a current requirement, at least to some degree -- by the 
virtue of putting something on BCP or Full Standard level.  In the 
past, some informational documents were also apparently subclassified 
as "FYI xx".  I don't know the history enough to know the process that 
was used to request those.

Maybe change "time of 4 weeks" to "time of up to 4 weeks" in both 
edits. Without such a change, if the publisher is faster than the 
requirement, they will be forced to slow down, probably with NOOP 
loops.

I know the current situation splits the responsibility for maintaining STD 
and BCP indexes between IETF and the technical publisher, but is there any 
reason why we would choose to continue with the split responsibility, if we 
were starting from scratch?

I believe that formal decisions by the IESG are enough for a status
change, although in many cases a change (e.g. to Historic) is the result
of the IESG approving a new document. At least in theory, a PS can become
a DS or a DS can become a Standard without a new RFC. I don't think we
should *require* a new document - that would be pure bureaucracy.

Yeah, I understand the policy part. I'm asking why we want to continue to 
have these indexes on a site that's not ietf.org.

I don't know if we will ever do anything with ISDs or SRDs (or any other 
metadata grouping), but if this ever happens, it seems like we'll have a lot 
more activity with STD-like indexes than we've had thus far. If the 
technical publisher was responsible for making sure that our specifications 
were available to the community, and IETF was responsible for making sure 
that the specifications were correctly classified and grouped, that would 
make sense to me. That's not the only way that makes sense, I'm sure.

I'm just trying to understand what the goal of having the technical 
publisher maintain these indexes is.

Thanks,

Spencer

That, I think, is the point of "as directed by the IETF." It makes it
clear where the policy comes from.

I think that's a separate question. As far as techspec is concerned,
we want the publisher to do what the IETF wants. If the IETF decides
to maintain these indexes in-house, the direction from the IETF to
the publisher will become "please do nothing." Thus, I'm happy with
the current wording.

This really looks good. I have a few short questions:

- In 3.2 Discussion - does the technical publisher have to take steps to 
make sure that a draft remains available for more than 6 months?

- Current Req-REFVAL-2 - Is the IETF responsible for forwarding documents 
with resolved references, or is the technical publisher supposed to catch 
these? (I thought IESG was trying to keep from approving documents with 
unapproved normative references, for example)

- In 3.6, why is technical publisher involved with IANA? (Is there an 
interface between technical publisher and IANA that we don't see from the 
IETF?)

- In 3.8 - do we care if there are identifiers that get allocated but don't 
get used (document is withdrawn, or something similar)?

- In 3.12, we say "used sparingly" for expedited handling, but we do pick 
numbers for metrics elsewhere. Would it make sense to name a percentage of 
documents that may be expedited in normal operation?

- In 3.17, is full-text search required?

- In 3.19 - I note that we are spending time looking at lists of "the oldest 
documents in specific status" elsewhere - include exception reporting as a 
requirement?

Thanks! As I say, it's looking good.

Spencer

SH: I don't think anything is needed from the technical publisher.  This is primarily used by other SDOs where the outside world doesn't have access to the draft documents until actually published.  It isn't intended to be a version you would reference, so I don't think there is a need to make sure the last draft remains available.

SH: This was meant to be more than a check on IETF references.  While the IESG can choose to hold back docs with in progress IETF references, we probably don't want them to spend time that all the listed references are actually available.  So this is still needed even if the IESG decides to hold docs up awaiting normative IETF references.

SH: In the current process, IANA works on the IANA considerations and then the technical publisher plugs those values into the document.  That is what this was intended to represent.  So it is one additional source of change that occurs after approval of the document.

SH: It doesn't seem to be a problem to me to have gaps.  The identifiers need to be unique and permanent.  In my opinion, having them semantically meaningful would be more important than ensuring no numbering gaps.

SH: Glad to put in a number, does anybody want to volunteer a number?  How about 1%?  I was hoping that if we can get the publication time down, we could remove this requirement all together.
>

SH: That seems to be a detail that can be worked out later, but I think full text search would be useful.

SH: This section is primarily intended for metrics for measuring performance.  I think that what you want is covered under section 3.11 (Potential Req-STATUSTRK-3  - The IETF technical publisher should 
      provide external visibility of not only the fact that a document 
      is in an extended waiting period, but also the token-holder and 
      circumstances of the wait. )

ok, I'll figure out the wording but indicate it is an upper bound.
