3.3. The Not-so-good News

The testing done was more at an vendor to vendor level than a pure IETF “RFC Conformance” test (where we test the explicit MUST/SHOULD/MAY/etc. requirements). We need to find a way to identify all of the IETF requirements and map them to vendor to vendor tests that we generally do (or provide some matrix of what we must test to satisfy the IETF requirements for an interop event).

We did not attempt any VTODO (aka Tasks) or VJOURNAL interop testing. Per IETF rules, if we do not get any implementations that support them then we must remove them from the standard in the future (but no timeframe for this removal is clear).
