Subject: Review of EAP over HTTP specification

Dear Wi-Fi and Wireless Broadband Alliance directors,

It is our understanding that the WISPr2.0 specification includes a
specification for transporting EAP over HTTP. We at the IETF would like
to offer our assistance in reviewing this design. While there is no
formal requirement for new uses of EAP to be reviewed by the IETF, we
have performed several such reviews in an effort to help other
organizations. In addition, you may be aware that the IETF has had other
proposals for carrying EAP over HTTP in past years, though no standard
was ever developed based on them.

If you believe such a review would be useful, let us know by responding
to this letter. The practical details can be agreed through discussion
with the IETF Area Directors. However, we would naturally like to
understand your schedule for this work to progress forward. In
particular, when must feedback be received in order for it still to have
an effect in the final result? Also, in order to ensure that we can use
all available reviewers, it would be useful to have some form of access
to the specific documents to the reviewers. Can this be arranged?

Best regards,
Jari Arkko
Ralph Droms
