This note announces the start of a one-week last call within the AFS-3
Standardization Group on the following document:

Title:           Base Types for Time in AFS-3
Filename:        draft-deason-afs3-type-time-03
URL:             http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-deason-afs3-type-time

   This document defines three types to be used in future AFS-3 Rx
   Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs) to represent time.  Current AFS-3 RPCs
   represent time as 32-bit integers representing seconds.  This is
   insufficient in both granularity and range, so new types to represent
   time are defined in this document to overcome these limitations.

If approved, this document will advance to the "experimental" state,
which is roughly equivalent to the IETF's "Proposed Standard".  A
specification in that state is expected to be complete and ready for
implementation; however, it is possible that the specification will be
revised on the basis of implementation, testing, and/or deployment
experience.  Advancement beyond this state to "standard" requires
successful implementation and an additional last call within this group.
For more details, see sections 2.3 and 2.3.3 of
draft-wilkinson-afs3-standardisation-00.txt.

This last call will expire at 23:59 EDT on May 9, 2014.

Please review this document and send any comments to the AFS-3
Standardization Group mailing list, <afs3-standardization@openafs.org>,
by that date.
