As the shepherding AD for this document, I am happy to see recent technical 
discussions on this document. OTOH, I do not observe any convergence to remove 
the pending DISCUSS.



The 2nd IETF Last Call was completed 2 months ago in April 2020. Joel Halpern 
did the review for routing directorate and found a couple of issues (zone-ID, 
loopback definition) and it seems that there is now an agreement within the 
community for updated the text.



In order to progress the document, a revised I-D is needed to fix Ben’s DISCUSS 
points:

- Use of rfc822Name rather than otherName: the ‘easy’ fix is indeed to use 
otherName (even with the section 6.1.2 justifications)

- “MTI cryptographic mechanisms are under-specified” that should not be 
controversial and easy to fix

- Clarification about the RPL root



Unsure whether Eric Rescola’s DISCUSS are still applicable (as they were on 
-16); but, this would be a plus to fix these points.



I understand that the authors have worked on this for 6 years and may be bored 
but I would love to see this I-D going forward. Again, as many others I fail to 
see the reason of using rfc822Name and the fix would be to use otherName.



May I also suggest to the authors to add new co-authors in order to have ‘fresh 
blood’ and energy ?



Regards
