Hi RSAB and RSWG,

The description of the rfc-interest mailing list has basically remained unchanged since the list's inception in 2004 [1]. The list has been used to discuss the creation of RFC Editor Model Version 2 [RFC6635] [RFC8728] and the creation of the current RFC publication formats [RFC7990]. Please see the current description at [2].

In light of RFC Editor Model v3, the RPC has drafted an updated description:

  A general discussion list about the RFC Series and its operational
  processes.

  The rfc-inter...@rfc-editor.org mailing list is meant be a focal
  point for information and discussion about the RFC Series and
  related practices. For example, topics appropriate to this list may
  include aspects related to RFC style, formatting, and tools.

  Please note that collaboration on new RFC Series policies should
  happen on the RFC Series Working Group (RSWG) mailing list
  (r...@rfc-editor.org). The RFC Series Advisory Board (RSAB) may
  initiate and manage community calls for comments on proposals that
  have gained consensus within the RSWG on the rfc-interest@rfc-
  editor.org list [RFC9280]. Topics that are out of scope will be
  redirected as needed.

  The posting policy is subscriber-only to reduce spam.
  To contact the list owners, use the following email address:
  rfc-interest-ow...@rfc-editor.org

Sandy Ginoza, Alice Russo, and I are owners of the list.

Summary of the changes:

  * Noted that policy discussions should occur on the RSWG list

  * Added info about RSAB using the list for community calls
    for comment

  * Simplified statements about off-topic discussions

Best regards,
Jean
