Body
To The Author(s) of RFC 4005/7155

The WBA (Wireless Broadband Alliance) is currently working with the GSMA to
define best practices for RADIUS/Diameter interactions.  In reviewing RFC 4005
and its update, RFC 7155, we noticed that "all of the material regarding
RADIUS/Diameter protocol interactions has been removed".  This change removed
an entire chapter, and its related information.  We were hoping to gain some
insight as to why IETF chose this route.  Would you be able to share any
information on why these details were removed?  Any insight would be much
appreciated.
