2. ITU-T Meeting Review

It was noted that there was an informal meeting between IAB and
ITU-T leadership in Chicago, held the day before the IETF meeting
agenda commenced. The goal of the gathering was to foster inter-personal
relationships which might help with future organisational interaction.

3. Enterprise Workshop

The proposal to host a routing and addressing workshop directed at
enterprises was discussed, in order to determine whether there was
forward progress.

The potential utility of such a workshop was discussed at some
length. A need for external consultation amongst key enterprise
segments was identified. Lixia Zhang, Kevin Fall and Danny McPherson
to consult with various enterprises with whom they have appropriate
contacts. The topic will be re-visited in September 2007.

4. NomCom

The question of whether incumbent members of the IAB should announce
to the community their intention to stand again, or not to stand,
was discussed. Various personal opinions about consequences of such
statements were expressed. After some discussion, it was decided
that no IAB statement regarding the intentions of incumbents should
be made. It was noted that individuals are free to communicate their
intentions (or not) as they see fit.

5. Technical Plenary

Logistics for the technical plenary were discussed. The IAB Chair's
slideset had been circulated prior to the meeting, and there was
no further feedback received.

6. Review of Action Items

Review of action items was deferred due to lack of time.
