Discussions/Reports
1. Report on the RARE WG3 meetings held in Zurich, Switzerland.
Reported by Joyce K. Reynolds.
The RARE WG3 USIS Working Group and the IETF User Services Working
Group are working in parallel. Jill Foster, Chair of USIS,
concurs. The RARE WG3 Working Group provides first level services
to end users. The IETF User Services Working Group have
traditionally provided second level services (i.e., providing
documentation to people who provide services to end users). RARE
WG3 will continue to provide first level services, while IETF User
Services will provide ``information packets'' and other user
services documentation. RARE will delegate their members to
actively work on IETF working groups.
2. Revision of User-Doc Working Group - Presented by Lenore Jackson &
Ellen Hoffman, User-Doc Co-chairs.
Discussion focused on the revision of its charter, establishing
procedures on updating the bibliography, additional objectives, and
future goals.
3. QUAIL - presented by Gary Malkin.
Brief discussion and comments of an updated Quail document for
``new Internet users''. The updating of this document is necessary
due to the transition of DDN NIC services from SRI to GSI. The
current structure/formatting of the document was also discussed.
4. SIGUCCS draft - Martyne Hallgren. Written by ACM Siguccs
Networking Taskforce.
Martyne's taskforce intends to submit this draft into the
1
``Internet-Drafts'' process, with the end result being an FYI/RFC.
She brought this document into the USWG forum for comments and
feedback.
Document title - ``Connecting to the Internet - what connecting
institutions should anticipate''
Abstract: This memo outlines the major issues an institution
should consider in the decision and implementation of a campus
connection to the Internet. The list of issues is not exhaustive
but rather this document should alert decision makers to major
concerns to be addressed in the critical phases of an institution's
full participation in the Internet community.
Martyne received positive comments on this draft. This draft is
akin to the "INCH" task on the USWG list of "things to do".
