Registration policy for units #77

Closed akeranen closed 6 years ago

akeranen commented 7 years ago

From Peter's review:

New entries can be added to the registration by either Expert Review or IESG Approval as defined in [RFC5226].

Why define two policies? That's just introducing the possibility of confusion.

fluffy commented 6 years ago

It means that if something needs to happen and AD can make it happen without firing the expert which creates so much bad will that an AD would much rather wit 6 months for the expert to respond. All it says if the AD can do this or the expert can. I don't care much.

akeranen commented 6 years ago

@fluffy Our AD had preference to have just Expert review in order for people to not think there are two paths but show clear preference. If things are slow, the IESG is next on the appeal path, so ADs can do it anyway.

Addressed by PR #80

cabo commented 6 years ago

Note that even with #80 we still have the dual policy on the labels. Bug or feature?

fluffy commented 6 years ago

On the "Our AD had preference to have just Expert review " ... I'm fine with this.

akeranen commented 6 years ago

@cabo The dual policy was fixed with the latest commit. Although perhaps we want to have more guidelines for the expert to follow?
