2. IF YOU RECEIVE THIS MESSAGE, AND ARE NOT YOUR ORGANIZATION'S
PRIMARY REPRESENTATIVE OR ALTERNATE TO ISOC PLEASE ADVISE - SO WE
CAN TAKE ACTION TO KEEP OUR COUNCIL MAILING LIST [cy below]
CURRENT. [TRUSTEE RECIPIENTS EXCEPTED]. THANX!
PREFACE:
=======
I apologize for being somewhat late with this report. On the OTHER hand
- why has no one complained!? I suggest we all try to do a little
better in breathing more life into the Advisory Council discussions and
the Council mail list.
Va bene ??
----------------------------------------------------------
INTRODUCTION:
=============
The Council met on Monday, 24 June in Montreal during the week of INET
96 - preceding the meetings of the ISOC Board of Directors. The meeting
was well attended [list attached] and we were fortunate in having a
number of the ISOC Board members with us including Chairman Landweber,
Vint Cerf, and ISOC CEO Don Heath. Several members missed the meeting
because of its being schedule so early in the week [INET proceedings
didn't start till Tuesday evening]. We'll give this some further thought
when scheduling the next face-to-face meeting.
A large part of our discussions to date have dealt with organizational
and administrative matters. I believe that this phase is now essentially
behind us. We have settled on a draft charter, and there is now a full-time
member of the ISOC staff working on Organizational Member support.
Initiatives are also underway to improve the operations of the ISOC
server and mail lists. So - we can now [hopefully] devote more emphasis
to the discussion and development of more substantive inputs to the
Board on matters of interest to the Organizational Members of ISOC,
and/or that we feel are relevant to the general health of the Internet
and of the Society.
AGENDA:
======
The Agenda, as adopted, is attached below and posted as Council Document
[96-004].
SUMMARY OF MAJOR DECISION AND ACTIONS:
=====================================
1. Council Charter. A consensus was reached on modifications to the last
draft [96-002]. It was also decided to incorporate the changes agreed in
a new final' draft and to submit the final draft to the Council for any
last call' major comments, and then to the ISOC Board of Trustees for
approval.
ACTION: Chair
=============
2. Officer Vacancy. It was decided to retain the current practice of
four [4] Officers of the Council, and consequently to fill the existing
Council Officer vacancy through an election procedure similar to that of
the last election of officers in 1994.
ACTION: Chair & ISOC Staff
==========================
3. Council Representation to the Board. It was agreed that the current
arrangements are satisfactory and in keeping with the philosophy of
individually elected Board Members - ie Council Officers will continue
to participate in Board discussions and meetings as non-voting
participants.
ISOC PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS.
========================
Don Heath, the "not so new" President and CEO of ISOC shared some of his
views and visions for strengthening the ISOC roles in Internet
administration, education, standards, and policy formulation. He is now
up to speed, and the ISOC staff is being expanded and stabilized. He is
desirous of working closely with the Council. Let Don hear from you at:
Don Heath <heath@isoc.org>!
ACTION: ALL
===========
REPORTS:
=======
1. Poised Activity. Eric Huizer, the Chair of the IETF Poised Working
Group reported on the package of [4] Internet-Draft documents produced.
These cover a revision to the IETF Standards Process, IAB and IESG
Nomination and Election Procedures, Organizations involved in the IETF
process, and ISOC/IETF Roles and Relationships. The Council commended
Eric and his Group for bringing these important and somewhat long-standing
issue areas to closure. The Council encouraged timely
acceptance and wide dissemination and community awareness of these
important process documents.
2. Domain Name System [DNS] Evolution. One of our Council Officers, Nick
Trio has been active on our behalf in this very active issue area. Nick
led the discussion, and brought the Council members up to date. There
have been several developments in the DNS arena that are directly
related to ISOC. The first was an Internet draft put out by Jon Postel,
Brian Carpenter, Larry Landweber and Nick Trio on creation and
administration of new Top Level Domains. This proposal has created a
large discussion on the viability of new TLDs and how the DNS for the
Internet should be run. Jon Postel has followed up with his current
draft <draft-postel-iana-itld-admin-01.txt>. Another workshop on
Coordination and Administration of the Internet will be taking place
September 8-10, 1996 in Cambridge, Mass., sponsored by NSF, Harvard IIP,
CIX, ITU and ISOC. The current Council consensus is to support the
"Postel" draft. [NOTE: The ISOC Board, at their meeting, approved the
draft in principal, and the roles proposed for ISOC, at their subsequent
meeting - and requested its further refinement]. Nick is planning on
attending the September workshop, and remaining active in this area on
the Council's behalf. Those with specific comments/inputs on DNS
administration matters should contact Nick at: Nick Trio
<nrt@watson.ibm.com>.
ACTION: Nick Trio/ALL
=====================
3. International Policy Issues. Vint Cerf outlined a number of policy
and legal issue areas that are pertinent to Internet and to the Society.
These include matters of privacy, security, intellectual property, etc.
Also - the appropriate roles, if any, for WIPO and WTO? Vint suggested
that there may be some fruitful areas here where the Council may
contribute. We didn't get a chance for much discussion on this item.
Vint indicated he would post some questions to the list that the Council
may be willing to tackle. Views, suggestions, comments, are solicited
from the Council members. Please give this some thought and post your
ideas and suggestions to the Council list <ISOC-Advisory-Council@isoc.org>.
ACTION: Vint Cerf/ALL
=====================
ADMINISTRATIVE ITEMS
====================
Council Chair. Nick Trio will be assuming Chairmanship of the Council.
This is a rotating assignment amongst the Council Officers. Nick will
Chair our next meeting. You can address the current Officers [Rick
Adams, Nick Trio, C.Joe Pasquariello] at:
<ISOC-Advisory-Officers@isoc.org>
ISOC Staff Support. There is a full-time staff member, Michelle
Lecompte <Michelle@isoc.org> dealing with organizational membership
matters. Also a System Administrator for the ISOC web site and document
servers, Frank Brunotts <brunotts@isoc.org>.
The Council Email list <ISOC-Advisory-Council@isoc.org> is being
scrubbed' and updated. A current copy of the list constituents is
attached. If you see any errors, please pass them directly to Michelle
and Frank - with an info copy to me. Investigation of an automated list
server is underway.
Let us hear from you with your comments, suggestions, gripes etc via the
Council or Officers lists!
And - DON'T FORGET - encourage your organizational associates who have a
stake in the Internet, and who are not members of ISOC to consider
joining. Membership information is available on the ISOC Web Server
<www.isoc.org>.
Best regards,
