My opinion is unchanged; there is no need to impose any implementation requirement, nor is there any need to add more process hurdles that further slow down the progress of a document towards publication. Certainly there is no need to gather details about implementations, vendor releases,

I am very strongly opposed to this "proposal". It takes the WG in the wrong direction, and attempts explicitly to undo the work that led to RFC4794, which eliminated some of the time-wasting requirements that served only to further extend the already slow IETF process. The right time to

Hello Kireeti, thanks for your inputs. I understand the challenge that "release x.y @shipping date d" might pose. What we want, is to go beyond the "I am aware of an implementation" type of response. It might currently be sufficient with regards to the shepherd write-up question, but won't be

Kireeti, Martin, Any data related to a serious implementation (even a beta without a shipping date), would I think be convincing enough. "release x.y @shipping date d" was simply provided as a possible answer, not of the minimum requirement to be convincing. As Martin said we need more than

I think this may be a useful "procedural bar" and if so then I'd like to see it implemented in other WGs, too... And, to some extent, it may be within the prerogative of the WG chairs. But I am also surprised by the lack of discussion. And I don't see any substantial conversation documented in the
