ROLL

Summary

The ROLL Working Group held an interim meeting to review the status of several drafts and ongoing work items. Key discussions included updates on the progress of roll-rnfd, roll-mopex, roll-enrollment-priority, and roll-nsa-extension drafts, addressing reviews and open issues. A volunteer for roll-mopex was identified. The co-chair announced their intention to step down and noted the pending process for a new co-chair appointment. The next interim meeting is planned for April or May.

Key Discussion Points

• Introduction and Not-well: The meeting opened with the standard IETF not-well reminder and expectations for respectful and professional conduct.
• Draft Status Overview:
  • roll-rnfd: In AD evaluation, submitted to the ISG. Routing Directorate review has been addressed, awaiting a reply from the reviewer. Version 34 addresses initial concerns.
  • roll-nsa-extension: In progress, issues are being addressed.
  • roll-enrollment-priority: In progress with open issues.
  • roll-mopex: Has open issues that need to be addressed.
  • roll-capabilities and roll-acknowledge: These drafts are expired and require attention from authors.
• Milestones: No changes to working group milestones since the last update in January.
• GitHub Tickets: Open tickets exist for roll-mopex (2 tickets), roll-rnfd (4 tickets), roll-nsa-extension (2 tickets), and roll-enrollment-priority (2 tickets). It is believed these are being addressed.
• Regular Meetings: The WG aims for an interim meeting every two months. The next meeting is targeted for April or May, and a Doodle poll will be sent out to determine the exact date.
• Errata for roll-mrhof: An errata for RFC 6719 (roll-mrhof) was verified, prompted by work on the roll-nsa-extension draft.
• roll-rnfd Discussion:
  • Four reviews have been received from the Routing Directorate, Security Directorate, Anan, and Carless.
  • Each review has a tracking ticket, and authors are in the process of addressing them.
  • Changes to the draft are being made but not yet published.
  • Next steps include issuing a Working Group Last Call (WGLC), shepherd follow-up, and submission to the ISG.
• roll-mopex Discussion:
  • Issue 28, concerning the reuse of existing MoP values within the extended MoP field, was discussed.
  • Dominique Barthel (author) is working on providing updated text to address this issue and expects to publish a new version soon.
  • A call for reviewers or contributors to assist with the text was made.
  • Alper Demir volunteered to review and contribute.
• roll-enrollment-priority Discussion:
  • Security Directorate and Routing Directorate reviews have been received, outlining issues (tracked by ticket 18) and needs (tracked by ticket 19).
  • Requests for additional reviewers have been sent, but no responses have been received yet.
  • Next steps include addressing the reviews, issuing a WGLC, and having the shepherd prepare for publication.
• roll-nsa-extension Discussion:
  • No changes have occurred since the last meeting.
  • The primary goal is to create a shorter, more generic version of the draft, specifically by removing its dependency on roll-mrhof (as previously proposed by Pascal Thubert).
• Open Floor:
  • Co-chair Transition: Dominique Barthel announced their intention to step down as co-chair by June 1st, citing potential unavailability. A candidate for co-chair has been identified, but the process for appointment by the AD is currently unclear, and inquiries have not yet received a response.
