Sorry – but – I’m a little confused here.

Because the way I look at this – the working group clearly stated that they 
wished for a single behavior – and this – does not deliver that – it is two 
separate behaviors.  As such – I see this call for adoption – irrespective of 
the merits or lack thereof of the draft, as a clear defiance of the stated will 
of the working group.

This is simply does not fit into the definition of bottom up approach in my 
opinion – and if this is the way that the chairs wish to proceed – then the 
only way to do that and still fit within the bottom up approach is to first ask 
this working group for its consensus to deviate from the single behacvior 
approach that the working group agreed to.

As such – I must  strongly and unequivocally object to this call for adoption

Subject: [spring] WG Adoption call for 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-filsfilscheng-spring-srv6-srh-compression/
Dear WG:

The chairs would like to express their appreciation for all the responses 
received to our emails with reference to how the working group wishes to move 
forward with respect to a solution for SRv6 compression.

The apparent inclination of the working group is to use 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-filsfilscheng-spring-srv6-srh-compression/<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-filsfilscheng-spring-srv6-srh-compression/>
 as the basis for its compression standardization work. That is part of what 
this email attempts to confirm.

Because of the above the chairs would like to issue a 2-week WG call for 
adoption ending October 15th for 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-filsfilscheng-spring-srv6-srh-compression/<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-filsfilscheng-spring-srv6-srh-compression/>
 but with some clear guidelines as follows. By expressing support for adoption 
of this document you are fully aware of and are acknowledging that:


  1.  The SPRING working group is adopting a document that has multiple SRv6 
Endpoint behaviors.
  2.  The document is a “living” document; it may change as it goes through 
review and analysis by the SPRING working group.
  3.  All open discussion points raised on our mailing list MUST be addressed 
BEFORE said document is allowed to progress from the working group to 
publication. A list of these discussion points will be documented in the WG 
document and maintained by the document editor in conjunction with the chairs.
  4.  If this document is adopted by the working group, the chairs specify as 
part of the adoption call that the following text describing an open issue be 
added to the document in the above-described open issues section:
     *   "Given that the working group has said that it wants to standardize 
one data plane solution, and given that the document contains multiple SRv6 
EndPoint behaviors that some WG members have stated are multiple data plane 
solutions, the working group will address whether this is valid and coherent 
with its one data plane solution objective.".

Please consider the above guidelines as you decide on whether to support or not 
this WG adoption. Please express clearly your reasoning for support/non-support 
as well as any open discussion points you would like addressed should the 
document be adopted into the working group.

Thanks!

Jim, Bruno & Joel
