1. The minutes from the September 23 and October 7 IESG Teleconferences
were approved.
2. Scott and Allison have sent suggestions for changes to the "ISO
CLNP in Tuba Envonments" document to Dave Piscitello. The document
will be revised resubmitted Internet-Draft. Coya is to wait for
explicit approval from Scott and Allison before sending the IESG
announcement approving this as an Experimental Protocol.
3. The IESG approved the publication of "PPP in HDLC Framing"
<draft-ietf-pppext-hdlc-framing-02.txt> and "The Point-to-Point
Protocol (PPP)" <draft-ietf-pppext-lcp-main-02.txt> as DRAFT
standards.
The IESG also approved the publication of "Requirements for an
Internet Standard Point-to-Point Protocol"
<draft-ietf-pppext-requirements-01.txt> as an Informational RFC.
4. The IESG approved the publication of "Multicast Extensions to OSPF"
<draft-ietf-mospf-multicast-04.txt, .ps> as a Proposed Standard
The IESG also approved the publication of "MOSPF: Analysis and
Experience" <draft-ietf-mospf-analysis-02.txt> as an Informational
RFC.
5. The IESG approved the publication of "OSPF Version 2"
<draft-ietf-ospf-version2-04.txt, .ps> as a DRAFT Standard. This is
a recycle in grade action.
6. Following some discussion, including the decision to remove a
paragraph from the draft charter, the IESG approved the formation of
the Routing over Large clouds Working Group. Hinden to notify the WG
Chair of the change made to the text of the charter.
7. The IESG deferred approving the publication of "A Revised Catalog of
Available X.500 Implementations" draft-ietf-ids-catalog-00.txt> as an
Informational RFC pending a review by Erik Huizer.
8. The IESG has decided NOT TO meet from 4-6 PM on Monday during the
IETF meeting in Houston. Bob Hinden offered to make arrangements for
the IESG to meet in a restaurant following the IESG Open Plenary
meeting on Thursday. Additionally, Steve Coya is to investigate the
possibilities of organizing an IESG lunch meeting on Wednesday.
There was some discussion on whether to schedule dinner meetings on
Sunday night at future IETF meetings, and the possibility of having
a standard meeting place each morning during the IETF meeting week.
The breakfast idea, while generally acceptable, will not be done
for the Houston meeting. Coya to make arrangements for this can be
done in Seattle, and to identify any problems (logistic or
financial) that need to be addressed.
9. Dave Piscitello provided a status update on the "Classical ARP over
ATM" document. The text which was deemed inappropriate for inclusion
in an Internet RFC has been removed, and additional changes have
been made to the document and it is now ready for IESG review and
discussion. It was suggested that the IAB review the document from
an architectural perspective, and Yakov offered to take this to the
IAB. It was noted that the last call period does not expire until
the middle of the IETF meeting in Houston.
10. The IPng Area will be requesting a series of white papers from a
number of individuals, and asked for IESG opinions on how the
publication should be handled. It was agreed that these should
follow the same route of initial announcement as Internet-Drafts,
eventually published as Informational RFCs.
It was noted that while the IPng is essentially soliciting
opinions, the opinions expressed by the authors of the individual
white papers does not automatically represent the opinions of the
area... nor do they exclude that possibility. It was suggested that
a standard text section noting that these are opinions be included
in each and every document.
11. Lyman reported on some of the results of the ISO/IEC JTC1/SC6
meeting held last month in Seoul. A liaison contribution from
SC6 to ISOC proposes that SC6 and ISOC jointly negotiate a
"memorandum of understanding" as the basis of a category A
liaison relationship between SC6 and ISOC; describes the bene-
fits that SC6 sees in the establishment of such a liaison rela-
tionship; recognizes the current reality that the best place in
which to pursue technical work on the development of standards
for internetworking is the IETF; and reaffirms the resolution
of its working groups from last February to make the relevant
Network and Transport layer SC6 documents available to ISOC and
to the Internet community at large (preferably in electronic
form). The "electronic form" aspect has been held up since
February by the ISO Central Secretariat, but Lyman expects an
agreement to be reached soon that will permit the documents on
SC6's list to be posted as RFCs.
Lyman will send a note to the IAB and IESG with the list of SC6
documents that are covered by the SC6 liaison from Seoul. The
liaison contribution itself will be posted shortly as an internet
draft.
12. Coya to send a message to the RFC Editor asking for an extension
on the Remote Query Protocol RFC submission which is to be reviewed
by Dave Crocker.
13. Phill reported that he is working on the IETF charter. At this
time, it is approximately 10 pages of text with outlines for the
rest of the document. Phill reviewed some of the major sections of
the charter, and his plans to get some individual reviews done
prior to holding a single topic teleconference with interested IESG
members to review the charter.
