- Minutes
-
- There were no changes or additions to the old Minutes.
-
- Advanced Usages Document
-
- Russ Wright and I mentioned that drafts had (have) been circulated, and
- that a final document should be ready for Columbus.
-
- Pilot Project Catalog
-
- Tim Howes spoke for April Marine, who produced the document, and
- distributed a draft just before the Washington IETF. I mentioned that
- April might not be able to see the document through as SRI is
- eliminating its NIC services; Tim graciously agreed to adopt the
- document if April has to move on. Most people had not read the paper
- yet, so comments should go to the list.
-
- Revision of RFC 1292
-
- Arlene Getchell and Srinivas Sataluri spoke about the expanded survey
- that they will be sending out to solicit updates for RFC 1292. There
- was some discussion of the survey, but there were no substantive changes
- made. A first draft of the new FYI should be ready for Columbus.
-
- New Papers if Needed
-
- There was a general consensus that there were no more papers necessary.
- Chris Weider mentioned that since there were now several directory
- services protocols (whois++ in addition to X.500) that the focus of the
- Group could profitably be shifted to working on integration between the
- existing (and future) directory services to allow the creation of a
- unified directory service. Erik Huizer felt that there was a need for
- guides for directory services providers and administrators, and a need

- to work on data integrity and maintainability. Consequently, Chris
- Weider and Tim Howes agreed to create a Charter for a new Working Group
- called Integrated Directory Services, which they would both co-Chair as
- representatives of the different protocols. This new Group will take
- over all the documents currently under construction by DISI (especially
- RFC 1292, which as an FYI must be kept up to date), and will work on
- these new issues also. A Charter will be released for this new Group by
- the end of 1992; once the Charter has been approved, DISI will be
- dissolved.
