Finally, the 14th revision of syslog-protocol is out. It now addresses all issues I am aware of, so this hopefully brings us very close to completion of this task. Chris already has announced he will call for WG last call, so let’s hope for the best. Of course, I expect some really bright and probably major-things-changing comments during last call. Let’s see how much must be redone then. On the other hand, we’ve had some real hard dicussions on the whole spec, especially in the last few month. So chances should be good the draft gets accepted without major revision need. But you never know…
The draft editor currently is very busy, as the cutoff date for draft submissions is next monday. Probably, it will take some days until the draft shows up. It’s available in my draft repository, so for those interested in it. This is draft-ietf-syslog-protocol-14.
