About RFC 3280bis

[Denis Pinkas <Denis.Pinkas@xxxxxxxx>]

Paul Hoffman said on the list on November 8:

"Instead of starting rfc3280bis, start a draft called something like
"rfc3280-changes". Have that draft be short, and contain *only*
changes to 3280. Only after there is consensus on the -changes draft
should you roll the changes in.

No one reads all of 3280 these days, so expecting people to search
through rfc3280bis for different sections is not reasonable".

I was fully agreeing with him and since I saw no neagtive response from the 
co-editors, I thought this was granted.

Then what happened ? Exactly the opposite !

What is the PKIX mailing list for, if the co-editors ignore such messages 
from the list ?

Can we finally have these rfc3280-changes, the list of comments received and 
their proposed resolution, BEFORE we can start reading the new draft ?

Or at least have a paragraph that gets removed prior to RFC publication
to tell everybody where changes were made.
