Hi Aijun! (With some delay) I wanted to acknowledge receipt of your appeal. It was posted at https://datatracker.ietf.org/group/iesg/appeals/artifact/138 last week.
Regards, Roman Danyliw (as Chair, for the IESG) From: Aijun Wang <wangai...@tsinghua.org.cn> Sent: Tuesday, June 17, 2025 4:02 AM To: 'The IESG' <i...@ietf.org> Cc: 'lsr' <lsr@ietf.org>; 'rtg-ads' <rtg-...@ietf.org> Subject: Appeal to the forwarding of draft-ietf-lsr-igp-ureach-prefix-announce Hi, IESG: Again, the LSR WG tries to forward one problematic document. I am contacting you to formally appeal the forwarding of this document (I am cc'ing the LSR WG/Routing ADs for the sake of transparency and openness). • Appellants: Aijun Wang mailto:wangai...@tsinghua.org.cn • Description of the Disputes Draft [1] passed the WGLC, with the unsolved deficiency designs. I have summarized the remaining issues in document [2], which describes in detail the following aspects: a) The proposal doesn’t work even in simple scenario.(section 2 of [2]) b) The proposal is based on one flawed feature(section 3 of [2]) c) No explicit UPA withdrawn signal(section 4 of [2]) The related discussions for the above issues are here: Issue a), the author admits they needs to update the corresponding RFCs(although no any description to propose how to update), but it is still problematic. [3] Issue b), the author hasn’t answered the controversy scenario clearly until now [4] Issue c), current proposal can’t distinguish the two cases that lead to the end of UPA advertisement. [5] The responses from our AD [6], make some progress----I removed the unimportant issues in this appeal to IESG---but doesn’t address the above technical issues This is another example, that the proposal is implementable but can’t be deployed in operator’s network. • Requested Actions 1) Please let the authors, or any other experts that support to forward this document answer the above three issues. 2) If they can’t be solved, please abandon this document[1]. 3) It is necessary to let the experts from the operators, to add/update the administration of the LSR WG, to gauge and raise the bar of the document output from the LSR WG.
