(1.a) Who is the Document Shepherd for this document? ==> Alan DeKok.
Has the Document Shepherd personally reviewed this version of the document and, in particular, does he or she believe this version is ready for forwarding to the IESG for publication? ==> Yes, and yes. (1.b) Has the document had adequate review both from key WG members and from key non-WG members? ==> Yes Does the Document Shepherd have any concerns about the depth or breadth of the reviews that have been performed? ==> No. (1.c) Does the Document Shepherd have concerns that the document needs more review from a particular or broader perspective, e.g., security, operational complexity, someone familiar with AAA, internationalization or XML? ==> It may be useful to have a review from someone in the security community who has not been involved in the document development. (1.d) Does the Document Shepherd have any specific concerns or issues with this document that the Responsible Area Director and/or the IESG should be aware of? ==> No. For example, perhaps he or she is uncomfortable with certain parts of the document, or has concerns whether there really is a need for it. In any event, if the WG has discussed those issues and has indicated that it still wishes to advance the document, detail those concerns here. Has an IPR disclosure related to this document been filed? ==> No. If so, please include a reference to the disclosure and summarize the WG discussion and conclusion on this issue. (1.e) How solid is the WG consensus behind this document? Does it represent the strong concurrence of a few individuals, with others being silent, or does the WG as a whole understand and agree with it? ==> The consensus shows strong consensus from a number of individuals. The WG as a whole understands and agrees with the document. (1.f) Has anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme discontent? ==> No one has threatened an appeal. If so, please summarise the areas of conflict in separate email messages to the Responsible Area Director. (It should be in a separate email because this questionnaire is entered into the ID Tracker.) (1.g) Has the Document Shepherd personally verified that the document satisfies all ID nits? (See the Internet-Drafts Checklist and http://tools.ietf.org/tools/idnits/). Boilerplate checks are not enough; this check needs to be thorough. Has the document met all formal review criteria it needs to, such as the MIB Doctor, media type and URI type reviews? ==> Yes. The ID Nits are: 1) uses RFC 2119 text without RFC 2119 template. This is intentional, and explained in the document 2) Using non-RFC3330 compliant IP addresses. This appears to be a "false positive", as the document does not use example IP addresses. There are no other reviews necessary. (1.h) Has the document split its references into normative and informative? ==> Yes. Are there normative references to documents that are not ready for advancement or are otherwise in an unclear state? ==> Yes. The document depends on draft-ietf-emu-chbind. If such normative references exist, what is the strategy for their completion? ==> The channel bindings document is expected to to be published before any tunnel method document. As a result, there appears to be no issue with publishing the tunnel requirements document now. Are there normative references that are downward references, as described in [RFC3967]? ==> No. If so, list these downward references to support the Area Director in the Last Call procedure for them [RFC3967]. (1.i) Has the Document Shepherd verified that the document IANA consideration section exists and is consistent with the body of the document? ==> Yes. There are no IANA considerations. If the document specifies protocol extensions, are reservations requested in appropriate IANA registries? Are the IANA registries clearly identified? If the document creates a new registry, does it define the proposed initial contents of the registry and an allocation procedure for future registrations? Does it suggest a reasonable name for the new registry? See [RFC5226]. If the document describes an Expert Review process has Shepherd conferred with the Responsible Area Director so that the IESG can appoint the needed Expert during the IESG Evaluation? (1.j) Has the Document Shepherd verified that sections of the document that are written in a formal language, such as XML code, BNF rules, MIB definitions, etc., validate correctly in an automated checker? ==> This is not applicable. (1.k) The IESG approval announcement includes a Document Announcement Write-Up. Please provide such a Document Announcement Write-Up? Recent examples can be found in the "Action" announcements for approved documents. The approval announcement contains the following sections: Technical Summary This memo defines the requirements for a tunnel-based Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) Method.

The tunnel will provide support for password authentication, EAP authentication and the transport of additional data for other purposes.
