New mailing list: language for IETF state machines: msg#00002ietf.apps-discuss
While IETF has a formal standardized language to describe grammars (ABNF, in RFC 4234), it has no language to describe state machines, leaving authors to use tables or list of transitions or ASCII-art (which leads some people to ask for a "richer" format for RFCs). I believe it would be a good idea to have such a language (see http://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ietf/current/msg42592.html for a rationale) so I wrote an Internet-draft (draft-bortzmeyer-language-state-machines-01.txt) describing a candidate, Cosmogol (further documented in http://www.cosmogol.fr/). There is now a mailing list, to see if there is sufficient interest for the IETF to go on, have a BoF in Prague, may be create a Working Group, etc: cosmogol@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/cosmogol |
