====== GitHub AUTH48 Experiment: RFC 8829 ======


==== High-Level Summary ====

  * The existing document repo (https://github.com/rtcweb-wg/jsep) was used:
    * The authors committed to a new branch (rfced) the XML files provided at the beginning of AUTH48 (both rfc8829.form.xml and rfc8829.xml but renamed draft-ietf-rtcweb-jsep.* to match previous file naming convention).
    * The authors created an issue from each AQ. 78 issues were raised. 
  * Workflow:
    * Authors provided feedback on each issue. 
    * When done with an issue, the authors marked it with a label to note it was ready and then assigned it to the editor.
    * The editor, who was added as a contributor to the repo, created a branch off the rfced branch, made updates, and submitted PRs to close the assigned issues.

==== Work Flow ====

The authors and editor agreed to use the GitHub Pull Request work flow:

  - The authors answer the AQ in the comments of the issue (e.g., see comments for [[https://github.com/rtcweb-wg/jsep/issues/922|#922]]).
  - The authors indicate that an issue is ready for editor attention by labeling the issue "editor-ready" and assigning the issue to the editor.
  - The editor creates a branch off the rfced branch to address the issue.
  - The editor makes edits in that branch.
  - The editor commits changes.
  - The editor creates a Pull Request (PR) to submit the changes to the repo (e.g., [[https://github.com/rtcweb-wg/jsep/pull/997|PR #997]]).
  - The authors review the PR: 
    - If the PR is accepted, the authors merge the changes to the rfced branch, which closes the issue.
    - If the PR is rejected, the editor makes changes to the current branch and resubmits the PR. 
  - Repeat for the other issues.  
  
The authors and the editor set up notifications so that many of these steps automatically generated emails to involved parties (assigning/commenting on issues, use of @mentions, creating/accepting/rejecting PRs). 766 messages were generated during AUTH48.
