IETF 68 March 19-23, 2007 These are the collected minutes of the business discussions held during various IAB meetings of the IETF68 week. Various individual participants may have been unavailable for some of the specific discussion topics on different days, though the IAB had quorum at all times. 1. Rollcall PRESENT: Bernard Aboba Loa Andersson Leslie Daigle Elwyn Davies Kevin Fall Olaf Kolkman Barry Leiba Kurtis Lindqvist Danny McPherson Dave Meyer David Oran Eric Rescorla Dave Thaler Lixia Zhang Aaron Falk Sandy Ginoza Dan Romascanu Phil Roberts Lynn St Amour Mark Townsley Brian Carpenter Topics 2-5 were discussed in a joint meeting with the IESG. 2. OIF Liaison The IAB and IESG discussed the relationship with the OIF. There was a general agreement that IETF only enters into liaison relationships under certain conditions; (1) it must be that the liaison relationship improves the possibilities for IETF to fulfill its tasks, (2) there must be someone on the IETF side that can manage the relationship, (3) there must be enough resource overlap between the liaised organizations to complete intended protocol design, (4) there must be a clear agreement between IETF and the other organization on conditions governing the relationship. The last time we discussed a liaison relationship it wasn't possible to establish because we lacked an IETF person to manage the relationship. Loa agreed to work with the CCAMP WG chairs, Adrian Farrel and Deborah Brungard, to determine if there is an IETF person to manage the relationship and determine the state of affairs with respect to the other conditions. 3. GMPLS document The IAB and the IESG discussed the GMPLS change process document (draft-andersson-rtg-gmpls-change-08). The document had been in the IESG-review for a long time and there were several "discusses" raised. However, at the meeting in Prague there was only discuss left (by Mark Townsley). Mark agreed to check if the changes introduced in version -08, made it possible to clear the discusses. 4. IETF/ITU Leadership Meeting The IAB and IESG discussed a potential meeting with ITU-T SG chairs in Chicago. The proposal is to have an informal meeting with the objective of building relationships between individuals moreso than having technical exchanges on any particular topics. Scott Brim will be working out a proposal with the IESG and IAB and then relating that to the ITU-T. 5. ROAP The IAB and IESG discussed preparations for discussions in the Wednesday night meeting and during the Int-area and Rtg-area meetings on Thursday.

IAB technical session on Unwanted Traffic Workshop Followup The IAB discussed some possible follow-ons to the IAB unwanted traffic workshop.
