Subject: [Errata Held for Document Update] RFC5655 (1991)

The following errata report has been held for document update for
RFC5655, "Specification of the IP Flow Information Export (IPFIX) File
Format". 

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=5655&eid=1991

--------------------------------------
Status: Held for Document Update
Type: Editorial

Reported by: Alfred Hoenes <[email-masked]> Date Reported: 2009-12-28 Held
by: Dan Romascanu (IESG)

Section: 12.2, pg.43

Original Text
-------------
...  first paragraph:

                                                 [...].  The channel

|  between the Exporting Process to Collecting Process using IPFIX is

   signed by the Exporting Process key and protected via TLS and DTLS,

   while the File is signed by the File Writer key and protected via

   CMS.  [...]

Corrected Text
--------------
                                                 [...].  The channel

|  from the Exporting Process to the Collecting Process using IPFIX is

   signed by the Exporting Process key and protected via TLS and DTLS,

   while the File is signed by the File Writer key and protected via

   CMS.  [...]

Notes
-----
Rationale:

  "channel between xxx to yyy" does not make sense. Either

  "channel _from_ xxx to yyy"  or  "channel between xxx _and_ yyy"

  should be written.

  The Corrected Text above suggests the first alternative (based

  on the essential unidirectionality of the information flow) and

  balances the use of articles.
