1. With respect to dealing with the press, it was requested that all
queries about the IPNG directorate and the IPNG process should be
directed to the Co-Area Directors, but that queries about individual
IPng proposals should be dealt with by the authors of those
proposals
2. Allison initiated a discussion on the roles of the IPNG Directorate.
Essentially, the Directorate members represent a wide variety of
groups and backgrounds. The Directorate will be performing the white
paper reviews, review of the various proposal documents, work with
the co-directors in the establishment of working groups under the
area, participate in big-internet discussions, do outreach when
offered the chance, review working group documents, etc.
3. There was a lot of discussion on the external review panel,
including the proposal that Dave Clark function as the handler for
the ExRP. There were a number of comments and some concerns raised
during the discussion. It was decided to continue the discussion on
the mailing list preparatory to discussion of membership of the ExRP
at the next teleconference.
4. It was decided that the draft white paper outline should be
discussed via e-mail, particularly to see if there were some areas
that had not been explicitly mentioned. It was suggested that
earlier works, such as the Selection Criteria I-D, might be reviewed
with the purpose of identifying additional criteria to be used when
reviewing white papers.
The direcotorate also agreed to seperate the original white paper
concept into two parts:
1) white papers that represent the views or concers that an
author wishes to bring to the attention of the IETF and the
IPng process
2) overview documents of the IPng proposals - it was agreed
that the directorate was not ready to define the form of these
overviews
Initially, the document reviews will focus on clarity and
self-completeness. Directorate comments will be returned to the
authors. It was proposed that when a revision is ready, a
notification is to be sent to Steve Coya who will then notify the
Directorate.
5. The Directorate discussed the establishment of a Requirements WG and
a Transition and Coexistence, including Testing (TACIT) Working
Group. Allison and Scott asked for suggestions for people that might
chair these new working groups. Frank Kastenholtz was mentioned as a
chair of the Requirements WG though there was some discussion on
getting a co-chair
6. Next teleconference will be December 6, 1993
