The IESG has received a request from an individual submitter to consider the following document: - 'Formally Deprecating Some ICMPv4 Message Types' <draft-gp-obsolete-icmp-types-iana-01.txt> as Proposed Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2013-02-14. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract A number of ICMPv4 message types have become obsolete in practice, but have never been formally deprecated. This document deprecates such ICMPv4 message types, thus cleaning up the corresponding IANA registry. Additionally, it updates RFC792 and RFC950, obsoletes RFC1788, and requests the RFC Editor to change the status of RFC1788 to "Historic". The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-gp-obsolete-icmp-types-iana/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-gp-obsolete-icmp-types-iana/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
