Danny also noted that the tech report from the observatory work has been submitted as a conference paper, but that some of the data is already publicly available. Vijay has been coordinating with Hal Varian (Google, UC Berkeley) on the Congestion Economics topic. Hal is interested, and they are working with Marcelo to scope the topic for IETF 78. 4. Action Item Review 4.1. Identifiers at the Applications Layer - DNS, URI/IRI, URN, Keywords, email addresses, etc. Dave Thaler noted that the draft is still progressing, and John added that recent the notes from the IETF IRI Working Group could form the first part of the white-paper. John and Dave will update the action item to distinguish the various parts of this topic. 4.2. IDN-TLD considerations John said that he had done a series of briefings on this topic over the last few weeks, and that there has been recent interest by the US and EU cyber-security communities. He and Olaf will discuss further to identify any next steps for the IAB. 4.3. UTF-8, IDNA, Punycode, etc. Dave Thaler will re-organize this item and combine as appropriate with item 4.1. 4.4. IPv6 for IAB Business Dow took an action to develop a list of targets for transitioning to IPv6 before IETF 77. On a related topic, Stuart noted that Apple corporate had recently rolled out operational IPv6 in their infrastructure, and have a native IPv6 provider. He added that the change had been virtually seamless, and that he now connects to ietf.org over native IPv6. 5. Document Status 5.1. IAB Thoughts on Encodings for Internationalized Domain Names No change in status. 5.2. On RFC Streams Headers and Boilerplates This was published as RFC 5741. 5.3. DNS Synthesis Concerns No change in status. 5.4. A survey of Authentication Mechanisms Gregory indicated that he should have the next draft ready for review by the IAB next week, and that it should address the concerns of Sam Hartman and Nico Williams. 5.5. Evolution of the IP Model No change in status. 5.6. IAB IANA Draft Olaf is in the process of re-ordering the contents of the document, and has moved a large fraction of the material to an appendix. He also clarified a few sections, and passed the latest version onto Leslie Daigle and Geoff Huston for review. 5.7. IAB Thoughts on IPv6 Network Address Translation Dave Thaler is working with Lixia Zhang on a revision. 5.8. Anycast Draft Danny reported that this document is ready to be submitted as an IAB draft. 5.9. Design Considerations for Protocol Extensions Stuart talked with Brian Carpenter, and noted that this document is now ready to be submitted as an IAB draft. 6. Smart Grid Directorate Danny asked about the nature of the Smart Grid Directorate, and Russ clarified that the intent of this group is simply to assist with IETF-internal tracking of this work area. Fred Baker will remain the external interface to the Smart Grid, and JP Vasseur for the ZigBee Alliance. Danny asked why this area was getting special attention, and Russ stated that the intent was to ensure that all the relevant IETF Areas had people tracking this, since it is inherently a cross-area activity. There was a concern that a closed directorate would end up providing an accelerated path for Smart Grid related work in the IETF, and Russ noted that there would be an open Smart Grid mailing list where the note well applies. 7. .arpa delegations Olaf drew the board's attention to draft-jabley-reverse-servers, which is currently last called for Standards Tack, but might be more appropriate as a BCP via the IAB stream. He has prepared an email raising the question, and asked the rest of the IAB to comment by Friday. 8. RPKI message / DoC Discussions The board reviewed the latest draft of the IAB statement on RPKI, and considered several clarifications to the text. Olaf will update the document based on the discussion and send it out to the group. EXECUTIVE SESSION: At this point in the meeting liaisons dropped from the call. 9. RSE Update Olaf reported that the IETF Administrative Director (IAD), Ray Pelletier, is in negotiations with the RSE candidate. Russ asked how the negotiations were progressing, and Olaf will contact Ray for an update. 10. ISE Update At this point in the meeting Jon Peterson dropped from the call. The IAB recently received a recommendation for Independent Stream Editor (ISE) from the Ad Hoc Committee for Selection of Editorial Functions (ACEF) as described in RFC 5620. After a short discussion, the IAB unanimously confirmed Nevil Brownlee as ISE pending successful budget negotiation with the IAD.
