1. Summary
Alexey Melnikov is the responsible Area Director.
Zstandard, or "zstd" (pronounced "zee standard"), is a data
compression mechanism. This document describes the mechanism, and
registers a media type to be used when transporting zstd-compressed
via Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME), as well as
a new HTTP Content Coding.
2. Review and Consensus
This is not a product of an IETF WG.
There are multiple implementations of "zstd" compression algorithm, see
<http://facebook.github.io/zstd/> See also Section 5 of the draft.
3. Intellectual Property
Editors confirmed that they have no IPR to disclose.
4. Other Points
The document is incorrectly stating that it is Standards Track, however it
was IETF Last Called as Informational. The document is Informational, so
there are no DownRefs.
IANA Considerations are clear.
