Hi, Ben,

That would be great (speaking just for myself) if you mean that for a given issue, you'd post the before and after applicable to just that issue, not a complete diff between draft versions.

Thanks very much,
Karen

By the way, if it would be helpful, I can easily post the current rfcdiff between the last I-D and our proposed next I-D any time anyone wants it.

You can also check out the git repo and make it yourself.

And, of course, once we update the I-D on the IETF site, the diff is also available there.

        Ben,

        Whoops. Sorry my response was not on target.

        But, while we're on the topic of response to issues, I find
        use of github for
        communicating of issues to be very inconvenient.

        First, the URLs in the messages are broken into two lines, so
        I have to
        cut and paste them together to get to the right page.


        Second, the lines in the files are often very long, so I have
        to scroll
        to the right to read what has been written.


    This only occurs in the "conversation" view, as far as I know. If
    you click on "View full changes" you get a wrapped view of the change.


        Is there a good reason that the text for proposed resolution
        of issues is not being
        sent via messages to this list, as is common IETF practice?
        Someone who wants to
        track what is happening in trans should be able to look at the
        mail and see what
        is being changed/proposed, etc. Using github adds a layer of
        indirection that is
        at best awkward, as noted above.


    The obvious answer to this particular awkwardness is to "watch"
    the repository on github (button on the top page:
    https://github.com/google/certificate-transparency-rfcs).

    The good reason for not sending issues via messages is that it
    adds a layer of indirection for the authors that is at best awkward.

            Ben,

            The issue here is not whether, at this time, we have
            identified an need for
            a v2 STH. The issue is that the doc needs to describe how
            the system will
            transition to a new version, if it is ever needed.


        That may indeed be _an_ issue, but it is not the issue this
        ticket describes!

                #59: Clarify STH versioning


                Comment ([email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>):

                Â  I can't find anywhere that requires a v2 STH.

                Â  However, I agree that we do not need to make this
                change yet: if we
                Â  discover a need for extensions in an STH, then we
                can introduce a v2 STH
                Â  and new APIs that deal with v2 STHs. Existing code
                can continue to use v1
                Â  STHs and the corresponding APIs.
