The IESG has received a request from the Calendaring Extensions WG (calext) to consider the following document: - 'Calendar subscription upgrades' <draft-ietf-calext-subscription-upgrade-13.txt> as Proposed Standard ...
Major issues: 3 Enhanced GET At least two alternatives come to mind that would not require to "enhance" GET: a) Use regular conditional request using ETags, and let the server send incremental contents based on Etag in "If-None-Match", and let the response vary by that request header field. See also https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/calsify/_CnkP8Ys5oIK1L-uCETwPFYV2lM/ for more details. b) Use Range Request with a new range unit suitable for text/calendar content. 5. Header Field It seems that <https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9110.html#considerations.for.new.fields> were not followed. For instance, are these examples equivalent? a) Sync-Token: "data:,1234567" b) Sync-Token: "data:,\1234567" c) Sync-Token: "data:,1234567", "data:,1234568" d) Sync-Token: "data:,1234568", "data:,1234567" e) Sync-Token: "data:,1234567" Sync-Token: "data:,1234568" f) Sync-Token: "data: Sync-Token: 1234567" Note that using Structured Fields (https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9651) would help with that. Other issues: 2. Discovering... There's no reason why other methods, such as OPTIONS or GET, would not return these Link relations as well. 6. Preferences (if actually needed, see above...) both preference names should be made very specific for this protocol. In particular, "limit" is way to generic. See also <https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7240.html#section-5.1>. 10. IANA For header fields, please see <https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9110.html#field.name.registration> and <https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9651.html#iana>. Editorial Nits: Abstract does not mention the actual protocol extension for GET. The reference to RFC 7231 needs to be updated.
