BCP 47 recommends case conventions for user interfaces, but objects using this textual convention MUST use only lowercase. Mandating lower case is clearly a good idea here, but I believe that this doesn't achieve the intended goal without also being combined with canonicalization (see Section 4.7 of 4646). That is already a SHOULD-level requirment; would it make sense to strengthen it to MUST for this use? |

Based on a LC comment from CE Whitehead, I suggest to replace in the DESCRIPTION clause of the LangTag TC 'This language tag' by 'The language tag described in this TC'. 2. I believe that the following comment from the MIB Doctor review of Juergen Schoenwaelder was not completly addressed: ' I note that the LanguageTag in RFC 2932 is 100 octets long while the new LanguageTag is 60 octets - so an update (in general not legal) is technically not possible. Furthermore, MIB modules may end up using different TCs with different sizes. This might practically not be an issue - but since the document talks about obsoleting IPMROUTE-STD-MIB, I would have expected some more discussion about this. Note that RFC 2932 LanguageTag is used by the MALLOC-MIB (RFC 3559) (and it is subtyped to 94 octets there, probably because it is used in an INDEX).' Although now the text about RFC 2932 moved to Section 6, there is no text that warns the reader that some other documents may still use the LanguageTag TC defined in 2932. |

Let's consider the changes required during the IETF Last Call and submit a revised version for the IESG … Juergen Schoenwaelder provided a MIB Dr. Review. Let's consider the changes required during the IETF Last Call and submit a revised version for the IESG telechat. Hi, I have reviewed following RFC 4181 and here are my comments: a) Boilerplate is OK and idnits 1.122 pass fine. The MIB modules compiles fine with smilint 0.4.1. b) The abstract contains a reference, which is not allowed according to the guidelines. c) The introduction says that this module was written because RFC 2932 is being obsoleted, but it does not give further guidelines whether other modules should be updated or whether there is a forward path. I note that the LanguageTag in RFC 2932 is 100 octets long while the new LanguageTag is 60 octets - so an update (in general not legal) is technically not possible. Furthermore, MIB modules may end up using different TCs with different sizes. This might practically not be an issue - but since the document talks about obsoleting IPMROUTE-STD-MIB, I would have expected some more discussion about this. Note that RFC 2932 LanguageTag is used by the MALLOC-MIB (RFC 3559) (and it is subtyped to 94 octets there, probably because it is used in an INDEX). d) Section 4 talks about "several" TCs but there is only one. e) It is not really clear whether the RFC note (section 6) is supposed to stay are whether the RFC editor should remove it before publication. f) Some RFC references list in addition an ID name as work in progress and an additional status; both I think should be removed. I am talking about [RFC4646], [RFC3414], [RFC 3415] g) RFC 4181 suggest a MIB name like LANGTAG-TC-MIB in appendix C but I leave it to the author to pick up this suggestion or not. (I just wanted to mention it.) /js -- Juergen Schoenwaelder Jacobs University Bremen P.O. Box 750 561, 28725 Bremen, Germany |
