RFC Editor
Joyce Reynolds
The RFC Editor is pleased to announce two new members of our
publication team.
Alice Hagens has joined us as an editor full time. Alice
holds a degree in Computer Science from Dartmouth College.
She spent a summer as an RA in the UC Irvine Department of
Information and Computer Science, where she wrote mySQL
queries and Java routines. After graduation she worked in
Japan and in Puerto Rico teaching English as a second
language. With this background, we expect Alice to make a
major contribution to our effort and hence to the Internet
technical community.
Alba Regalado has also joined the RFC Editor team
part-time. Alba has been with ISI's Division 7 in other
capacities over the last six years. She holds a degree in
Business Administration, and is fluent in Spanish. She
joins our project to assist in nroffing and editing RFCs.
Alba's efforts are expected to improve our publication
output.
Discussed during the action list review.
Discussed during the action list review.
Doug Barton's IANA note
The IAB discussed Doug Barton's note to IANA regarding IPv6
address space allocation. The IAB had some concerns. Kurtis
Lindqvist took the action item of drafting a list of issues so we
can respond within a week.
IPv6 ad-hoc advisory committee
The IPv6 ad-hoc advisory committee (Thomas Narten chair, Geoff
Huston, Bob Hinden, Kurtis Lindqvist) has proposed a note on
address space allocation. The IAB thinks it may be superceded by
Doug's note. The IAB needs a specific proposal from Thomas Narten.
The IAB discussed whether a formal liaison for SSAC was
desired. The IAB decided that at this point it preferred simply a
point of contact person. The IAB appointed Patrik Fältström as
point of contact for the SSAC.
The IAB discussed the presence of email addresses on the IAB web
site. The IAB agreed to disguise email addresses to make email
address harvesting more difficult. The IAB discussed the "news of
the month" on the home page. The IAB agreed that it was helpful
but it was important that it not be stale. Rich Draves took the
action item of reviewing the web site.
The IAB confirmed the selection of June 9/10 for its upcoming
retreat. The IAB discussed several locations. Jonathan Rosenberg
indicated that he/Cisco could host the retreat near both EWR and
IAD. A straw poll indicated a definite preference for IAD.
We agree to skip the April 27 tech chat. Pekka Nikander has an
action item to work on a list of architectural issues, which we
can produce future tech chat topics.
