Thank you.

Cheers,

Objet : [sfc] Progressing of NSH metadata drafts

Dear SFC WG:

Thank you to those that were able to attend our recent interim meeting.

One of the topics we investigated was how to progress drafts on metadata within the WG. As a WG we really need to make progress in this area.

We had a lively discussion around both type-1 and type-2 metadata.

At the interim meeting we reached a general agreement that we should adopt some of the type-1 allocation documents (initially the DC and Mobility allocations) and work toward WG consensus on the formats. While there was discussion on whether these documents should be informational or standards track, we agreed to initially adopt them as informational and move to a different track if the WG decides that is appropriate in the future.

We also reached a general agreement that we should call for the adoption of the type-2 TLV registry document (draft-quinn-sfc-nsh-tlv).

The chairs would like to emphasis that these agreements were preliminary as not all interested parties were in attendance at the interim meeting. Therefore, if there are objections or agreement to this path forward, please do indicate as such on the mailing list. If there are no substantive objections, the chairs will send separate emails shortly to request adoption of these drafts. Please look out for them and indicate on the mailing list whether you support adoption, and if not, why.

Jim
