Text of the page (random words):
ersity of southern california usc information sciences institute isi to assume the editorship and publishing responsibilities under the direction of the iab sandy ginoza joined usc isi in 1999 to work on rfc editing and alice hagens in 2005 10 bob braden took over the role of rfc project lead while joyce k reynolds continued to be part of the team until october 13 2006 in july 2007 streams of rfcs were defined so that the editing duties could be divided ietf documents came from ietf working groups or submissions sponsored by an ietf area director from the internet engineering steering group the iab can publish its own documents a research stream of documents comes from the internet research task force irtf and an independent stream from other outside sources 11 a new model was proposed in 2008 refined and published in august 2009 splitting the task into several roles 12 including the rfc series advisory group rsag the model was updated in 2012 13 the streams were also refined in december 2009 with standards defined for their style 14 in january 2010 the rfc editor function was moved to a contractor association management solutions with glenn kowack serving as interim series editor 15 in late 2011 heather flanagan was hired as the permanent rfc series editor also at that time an rfc series oversight committee rsoc was created 16 in 2020 the iab convened the rfc editor future development program to discuss potential changes to the rfc editor model the results of the program included the rfc editor model version 3 as defined in rfc 9280 published in june 2022 generally the new model is intended to clarify responsibilities and processes for defining and implementing policies related to the rfc series and the rfc editor function changes in the new model included establishing the position of the rfc consulting editor the rfc series working group rswg and the rfc series approval board rsab it also established a new editorial stream for the rfc series and concluded the rsoc requests for comments were originally produced in non reflowable text format in august 2019 the format was changed so that new documents can be viewed optimally in devices with varying display sizes 17 production and versioning edit the rfc editor assigns each rfc a serial number once assigned a number and published an rfc is never rescinded or modified if the document requires amendments the authors publish a revised document therefore some rfcs supersede others the superseded rfcs are said to be deprecated obsolete or obsoleted by the superseding rfc together the serialized rfcs compose a continuous historical record of the evolution of internet standards and practices the rfc process is documented in rfc 2026 the internet standards process revision 3 18 the rfc production process differs from the standardization process of formal standards organizations such as international organization for standardization iso internet technology experts may submit an internet draft without support from an external institution standards track rfcs are published with approval from the ietf and are usually produced by experts participating in ietf working groups which first publish an internet draft this approach facilitates initial rounds of peer review before documents mature into rfcs 19 the rfc tradition of pragmatic experience driven after the fact standards authorship accomplished by individuals or small working groups can have important advantages clarification needed over the more formal committee driven process typical of iso and national standards bodies citation needed most rfcs use a common set of terms such as must and not recommended as defined by rfc 2119 and rfc 8174 augmented backus naur form abnf rfc 5234 as a meta language and simple text based formatting in order to keep the rfcs consistent and easy to understand 18 sub series edit the rfc series contains three sub series for ietf rfcs bcp fyi and std best current practice bcp is a sub series of mandatory ietf rfcs not on standards track for your information fyi is a sub series of informational rfcs promoted by the ietf as specified in rfc 1150 fyi 1 in 2011 rfc 6360 obsoleted fyi 1 and concluded this sub series standard std used to be the third and highest maturity level of the ietf standards track specified in rfc 2026 bcp 9 in 2011 rfc 6410 a new part of bcp 9 reduced the standards track to two maturity levels citation needed streams edit there are four streams of rfcs ietf irtf iab and independent submission 20 only the ietf creates bcps and rfcs on the standards track an independent submission is checked by the iesg for conflicts with ietf work the quality is assessed by an independent submission editorial board in other words irtf and independent rfcs are supposed to contain relevant info or experiments for the internet at large not in conflict with ietf work compare rfc 4846 rfc 5742 and rfc 5744 citation needed obtaining rfcs edit rfc 2046 media types november 1996 a collected grammar 43 1 introduction the first document in this set rfc 2045 defines a number of header fields including content type the content type field is used to specify the nature of the data in the body of a mime entity by giving media type and subtype identifiers and by providing auxiliary information that may be required for certain media types after the rfc 2046 which defines the text plain mime type is itself a plain text the official source for rfcs on the world wide web is the rfc editor almost any published rfc can be retrieved via a url of the form http www rfc editor org rfc rfc5000 txt shown for rfc 5000 every rfc is submitted as plain ascii text and is published in that form but may also be available in other formats for easy access to the metadata of an rfc including abstract keywords author s publication date errata status and especially later updates the rfc editor site offers a search form with many features a redirection sets some efficient parameters example rfc 5000 citation needed the official international standard serial number issn of the rfc series is 2070 1721 14 status edit not all rfcs are standards 21 22 each rfc is assigned a designation with regard to status within the internet standardization process this status is one of the following informational experimental best current practice standards track or historic each rfc is static if the document is changed it is submitted again and assigned a new rfc number citation needed standards track edit main article internet standard internet standards standards track documents are further divided into proposed standard and internet standard documents 23 only the ietf represented by the internet engineering steering group iesg can approve standards track rfcs if an rfc becomes an internet standard std it is assigned an std number but retains its rfc number the definitive list of internet standards is the official internet protocol standards previously std 1 used to maintain a snapshot of the list 24 when an internet standard is updated its std number stays the same now referring to a new rfc or set of rfcs a given internet standard std n may be rfcs x and y at a given time but later the same standard may be updated to be rfc z instead for example in 2007 rfc 3700 was an internet standard std 1 and in may 2008 it was replaced with rfc 5000 so rfc 3700 changed to historic rfc 5000 became an internet standard and as of may 2008 update std 1 is rfc 5000 as of december 2013 update rfc 5000 is replaced by rfc 7100 updating rfc 2026 to no longer use std 1 best current practices work in a similar fashion bcp n refers to a certain rfc or set of rfcs but which rfc or rfcs may change over time informational edit an informational rfc can be nearly anything from april 1 jokes to widely recognized essential rfcs like domain name system structure and delegation rfc 1591 some informational rfcs formed the fyi sub series experimental edit an experimental rfc can be an ietf document or an individual submission to the rfc editor a draft is designated experimental if it is unclear the proposal will work as intended or unclear if the proposal will be widely adopted an experimental rfc may be promoted to standards track if it becomes popular and works well 25 best current practice edit the best current practice subseries collects administrative documents and other texts which are considered as official rules and not only informational but which do not affect over the wire data the border between standards track and bcp is often unclear if a document only affects the internet standards process like bcp 9 26 or ietf administration it is clearly a bcp if it only defines rules and regulations for internet assigned numbers authority iana registries it is less clear most of these documents are bcps but some are on the standards track the bcp series also covers technical recommendations for how to practice internet standards for instance the recommendation to use source filtering to make dos attacks more difficult rfc 2827 network ingress filtering defeating denial of service attacks which employ ip source address spoofing is bcp 38 historic edit a historic rfc is one that the technology defined by the rfc is no longer recommended for use which differs from obsoletes header in a replacement rfc for example rfc 821 smtp itself is obsoleted by various newer rfcs but smtp itself is still current technology so it is not in historic status 27 however since bgp version 4 has entirely superseded earlier bgp versions the rfcs describing those earlier versions such as rfc 1267 have been designated historic unknown edit status unknown is used for some very old rfcs where it is unclear which status the document would get if it were published today some of these rfcs would not be published at all today an early rfc was often just that a simple request for comments not intended to specify a protocol administrative procedure or anything else for which the rfc series is used today 28 copyright edit the general rule is that original authors or their employers if their employment conditions so stipulate retain copyright unless they make an explicit transfer of their rights 29 an independent body the ietf trust holds the copyright for some rfcs and for all others it is granted a license by the authors that allows it to reproduce rfcs 30 the internet society is referenced on many rfcs prior to rfc4714 as the copyright owner but it transferred its rights to the ietf trust 31 see also edit april fools day rfc best current practice internet experiment note list of rfcs references edit waitzman david april 1 1990 a standard for the transmission of ip datagrams
