Re: Applicability Stmt (AS) rescinding "IESG Note" and defining "LDAPv3"

["Kurt D. Zeilenga" <Kurt@OpenLDAP.org>]

I feel:
	a) an applicability statement is needed
	b) RFC2251-56,2829-30 need revision (some more than others)

These, in my opinion, are separate issues.

I believe an applicability statement should be published
and that it should rescind the IESG notice regarding
applicability of the technical specifications (RFC 2251-56).

I believe we need to identify necessary work items necessary to
produce specifications progressable to Draft Standard.  I believe
it will be necessary to reissue the complete set of LDAPv3 RFC
as Proposed Standard.

I propose that we schedule an session at IETF#48 to discuss
the issues regarding the LDAPv3bis documents.  A separate
session, I believe, to ensure this and other agenda items
get the attention they deserve.

Though I agree that the chair as stated this, I do not agree with
this approach.  LDAPv3bis documents are critical to the success
of LDAP.  We should work LDAPv3bis issues without delay.  There
is no shortage of volunteers to undertake LDAPv3bis work.
