Minutes
-------
1. The minutes from the January 12 teleconference were approved. Coya
to place in the public directories.
2. The IESG decided to once again return both "PPP LCP Option for Data
Encapsulation Selection" and "PPP in Frame Relay" to the Working
Group. Knowles to send message to the PPP WG requesting a single
coherent solution.
Coya to send "heads up" message to the RFC Editors, informing them
that either or both of these documents may be submitted to the
RFC-Editor for publication. If they do, the IESG will want to review
and add text.
3. The IESG approved the formation of the HypterText Transfer
Protocol (http) WG. Allison noted that many aspects of the work to
be done by this wg will be of great interest to the Transport
Services Area. This WG will be a joint WG with the Applications and
Transport Services Area; John will remain as the primary AD.
4. The IESG approved the publication of "Functional Requirements for
Internet Resource Locators" <draft-ietf-uri-irl-fun-req-03.txt> as
an Informational RFC, but requests that the word "Requirements" be
changed to "Recommendations."
Coya to send message to the RFC Editor.
5. The IESG agreed that a message be sent by the Chair to the IETF
noting the IESG policy of not permitting the word "Requirement" in
the title of informational RFCs submitted by Working Groups.
Mockapetris to draft and post this message.
6. The IESG discussed the three informational RFC submissions received
from the RFC Editors:
Jeff Schiller is to contact the authors of the SSL protocol to
discuss bring their work into the IETF.
Allison Mankin is to contact the others of TCP and UDP over IPX and
the TCP/IPX Connection Mib specification about concerns that were
raised by the directorate that reviewed the documents. Allison
summarized the directorate comments: the TCP and UDP specification
is not good, and publication would not serve the community very
well.
7. It was decided that Working Groups would be scheduled for Monday
morning (10-11:30) at the Danvers meeting. Further, there will be no
plenary sessions on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings (WGs
can start at 9am).
The IESG decided that the topic of night WG meetings (8-10 pm)
should be discussed during the Danvers Open Plenary slot.
8. The eventual re-assignment of IPNG working groups to other areas was
discussed, and the following assignments were agreed to:
ALE is to merge with CIDRD
IPNGWG is to move to the Internet Area
ADDRCONF is to move to the Internet Area
TACIT is to move to the Operations Requirements Area
NGTRANS is to move to the Operational Requirements Area
Allison reported that an effort was already underway to establish a
new working group named IPV6MIB. This will also be moved to the
Internet Area.
9. Scott reported a rise in the practice of individuals in WGs making
documents available for comment and review outside the
Internet-Draft process, and encouraged all Area Directors to monitor
and discourage this "out-of-band" practice.
