From https://github.com/martinthomson/i-d-template/blob/main/doc/REPO.md: Edit the draft so that it has both a title and the correct name. These tools use the -latest suffix in place of the usual number ('-00', or '-08'). The number is generated automatically when you use make submit.

So I should name the file draft-ietf-unicorn-protocol-latest.{md,xml} ?

Can the setup check to see if the docname or docName ends with -latest? And that the filename does?

richsalz commented 3 years ago

Of course, I got the filename requirement backwards. Don't end with -latest, and therefore check in "make setup" that it doesn't.

First step is to fix the documentation. Then I'll see about the validation (which is a good idea).

martinthomson commented 3 years ago

There was already validation, but it is easy to miss in the noise. Elevating that to an error is probably the best way.
