How to find all documents which are currently in WG adoption stage?

Open dhruvdhody opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Description

Maybe "IETF Document Search" should allow me to search for the WG state in the same way it does for the IESG state.

Note that I use the IESG state search to find all documents in the IETF LC.

aside: you can also find all the document in last call using https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/in-last-call

Not all groups use the WG states (by design, they are allowed to chose not to do so), and not all group use the states consistently. I can try to build an api query that would find those docs with one of the several group wg states that could be in use, but you would have to interpret the results carefully, after looking at how each group uses the states.

At the moment, you'll get better results searching for "adoption" in subjects at the mailarchive: https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/search/?as=1&q=subject%3A(adoption)&qdr=m

Thanks Robert! The mailarchive suffers from the same issue that I have when searching locally in my mailbox - too much repetition, don't know if the adoption is over as the same thread is being still used to discuss comments etc...

I think if this API exist, that could be a reason for WG chairs to set the state correctly :)

This search is also applicable to WGLC...
