Hi. Some weeks ago, I mentioned questions I had been asked about the work of an IETF WG, one of whose drafts seemed in danger of getting wrapped around a text directionality angle. I made some comments back to them, Addison made more (and probably more useful comments), and, once the document came up for general "Last Call" review in the IETF, Martin Dürst made several more. The document was revised to reflect those (not entirely consistent) comments or at least the author's view of them. There is now what is likely to be a final window for speaking up, lasting through about the middle of next week. If anyone feels like looking at the (presumably nearly final) document, see https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-core-problem-details/ . This is obviously not a request from a W3C group or within the W3C. However, the work does affect the web and, as I understand it, special devices and RESTful applications and APIs in particular, so the efforts of anyone who felt like looking at it, perhaps on the theory that getting it right now would avoid problems later, that would be appreciated. Comments should go directly to last-call@ietf.org; I see no particular advantages in trying to prepare a WG position. While this should probably go on the agenda for the record, I don't see any need to spend more time on it than would be needed to summarize or point to the comments above. john
