Hi,
a new month, a new status report.
First of all, Wes and I as chairs would like to thank the editors who have
stepped forward to work on the AQM Evaluation Guideline draft. We are really
thankful for their burst of efforts in the last couple weeks!
We expect that that a document will be ready for submission into the I-D
repository well before cutoff, as an individual draft, so that the WG can see
what the state of thinking is currently. Also, once the document is published
on datatracker we'd like to encourage active discussion on it.
If the submitted -00 draft is felt to have a fairly complete outline of what
the current thinking in the WG is, we may be able to ask the WG for formal
adoption during this IETF meeting, or shortly thereafter.
- WG Milestones:
- Submit AQM recommendations to IESG for publication, obsoleting RFC
2309 (Goal: January 2014)
- draft-ietf-aqm-recommendation is accepted towards this milestone
- http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-aqm-recommendation/
- the draft has been updated per comments received
- if the authors are comfortable, a WGLC might be made on the next
revision
- we would like to hear from other authors of RFC 2309 on this
document, if anyone has contacts to them.
- Submit AQM algorithm evaluation guidelines to IESG for publication as
Informational (Goal: July 2014)
- An editor team has come forth and is working on this
- A draft should be available for discussion in the London IETF
- We encourage discussion on the list and during the meeting, if this
draft should be adopted by the working group.
- Submit first algorithm specification to IESG for publication as
Proposed Standard (Goal: December 2014)
- Since any Proposed Standard algorithm should be in line with the
recommendations and be passable versus the evaluation guidelines, this
milestone is dependend on the progress of the two work items above.
- Currently the only algorithm spec with a complete and active
individual-submission draft is PIE
- Other items:
- draft-pan-aqm-pie is under active work as a proposed algorithm:
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-pan-aqm-pie-00.txt, however the draft
has expired and should be refreshed.
- draft-nichols-tsvwg-codel is expired; Dave Taht or others may revive it
and/or
describe pairing with FQ/SFQ algorithms:
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-nichols-tsvwg-codel-01.txt
- Other algorithm specifications are welcome!
- Though, we are not planning on adopting algorithms until
recommendations and evaluation guidelines are mostly stable
