Looking at the RFC Editor queue, it looks as if this is the only 
document in the complex web of interdependencies between rfc2401bis and 
ikev2 and their related documents that is still in the EDIT state.  All 
the others appear to be in REF state waiting for it to finish editing.  
Why this one, which was one of the earlier arrivals in the queue, is now 
the blockage cannot be deduced from the database.  It would certainly 
clear out a big chunk of queue (and would fill in a big hole in the 
security standards scene) if it could be finished!
