Subject: [Techspec] Issue 2: Clarifying Scope of IETF Publication Process

Does techspec (and the pub-req) draft address independent submissions?

Proposed Resolution: Scope the draft to indicate explicitly what is covered.

Update the scope section to indicate that this draft only addresses those documents submitted to the IETF via the IAB, IESG, or IRTF.  This includes individual submissions that go through the IETF.  It specifically excludes independent submissions that go directly to the Technical Publisher.  The handling of independent submissions may well be a requirement on the technical publisher, but it is not one associated with the IETF publication process and hence is outside the scope of this document.

The following requirement should be removed: 
Current Req-EXCEPTIONS-2 - The IETF technical publisher should have the discretion to reject publication of an independent submission based upon feedback from reviewers.
