Mahesh,

As I understand it, the authors eventually want this draft to be adopted by the 
RTGWG.  This makes sense because it includes VRRP protocol extensions, so it 
would normally go to the VRRP WG.   Since the VRRP WG is concluded, the RTGWG 
is a reasonable place to do this work.

One might also consider doing this work in the BFD WG to take advantage of the 
concentration of BFD expertise there.  However, since the main content of the 
document deals with VRRP behavior and defining a new VRRP packet type, it seems 
like it might be a diversion from the main work of the BFD WG.

If the RTGWG does adopt the draft, the name of the adopted draft should start 
with draft-ietf-rtgwg (as you point out, following RFC7221).

As an individual submission at this point, there are no hard requirements on 
the name of the draft, except that it not start with draft-ietf.  However, when 
authors are submitting drafts that they intend to eventually be considered for 
adoption by the RTGWG, it is quite useful to name them 
draft-authorname-rtgwg-yyyy, so that they automatically show up at 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/rtgwg/documents/ at the bottom under the header 
of “Related Internet-Drafts”.

Thanks,
Chris

Subject: Re: New Version Notification for draft-nitish-vrrp-bfd-02.txt

Shouldn’t the draft be named draft-nitish-bfd-vrrp or something like that to 
follow the naming convention described in RFC 7221?
