Requirements to Extend the Datatracker
for IETF Working Group Chairs and Authors
Abstract
This document specifies requirements for new functionality to be
added to the IETF Datatracker tool to make it possible for Working
Group (WG) Chairs and their Delegates to input and update the status
of the Internet-Drafts (I-Ds) associated with their WGs. After these
requirements are implemented, WG Chairs will be able to use the
Datatracker to provide everyone with more information about the
status and progression of WG I-Ds than is currently possible.
