IESG Operations - Behind the Drafts

Bill Fenner IETF 62 - Minneapolis, MN

What is this data?

• From I-D Tracker dumps since 2003
• Raw data:

http://rtg.ietf.org/~fenner/iesg/data/ https://rtg.ietf.org/phpmyadmin/ (login “ietf”, password “ietf”)

• Want to be careful not to conclude too

much from limited data.

I-D Approval

• Metrics from IETF to IETF
• IETF meetings are a nice marker
• Queue Additions:
• Requested: WG or RFC-Editor asks for

publication

• Queue Removals:
• Approved: IESG approves
• Returned to AD is Watching: usually the

document got sent back to the WG (more than just “revised I-D needed”)

• Dead: The IETF doesn’t want/need to track this

document any more
