2. Discussion of IAOC Appointment
See executive session.
3. Liaison discussion/appointments
Cablelabs
The IAB is expecting final text for an I-D describing the proposed liaison.
4. IETF68 Plenary Agendas
The IAB discussed the possible agenda for plenary meetings during IETF 68. There are indispensible activites for all plenaries including the host presentation, and the question and answer time for the IAOC, the IESG, and the IAB. The question and answer time is particularly important during this meeting as it is the meeting with the new IESG and IAB are seated. There is also an expectation of a technical discussion and this time there is the possibility of using a 2 hour slot during plenary time to have a potential BOF discussing the next steps in routing and addressing (as a result of the IAB workshop on the same in 2006). There has been a tradition of also having a slot for a potential IRTF presentation. Meeting all of these goals in Prague may be challenging. The IAB intends to discuss this further at the next business meeting.
Eric agreed to draft some text on the qualitative expectations of any technical talk we choose to host in a plenary.
The IAB had previously considered inviting leadership from IEEE 802 to discuss their work plans to highlight possible areas of joint interest between the IETF and the IEEE, but it will not be possible at this meeting.
5. ITU Focus Group on Identity Management Feb 13-16 Geneva
The ITU has created a new work item on identity management and they are having their first focus group meeting during the ITU meeting on Feb 13-16. The IAB would like to have an observer for fact finding and reporting to determine whether there is related IETF work to be done or connected. It is possible that an IAB member may be able to attend but is yet unclear.
6. Upcoming Techchats
The IAB discussed upcoming techchats. Kevin Fall and Lixia Zhang will discuss current research in routing during the January techchat. Between the technical slot for the IAB during IETF 68 and the February tech chat, the IAB would like to have discussions on emergency preparedness, and on potential followups to the unwanted traffic workshop. The IAB will determine based on schedule availabilities how to allocate those chat slots.
7. Review of Specific Actions
- Draft tracker proposal
Phil sent the IAB part of the draft tracker proposal to Henrik and believes it is done.
- Anycast text
Kurtis expects to have some text on anycast very soon.
(See Appendix A)
8. Review of Documents
- authentication mechanisms
Bernard created a list of 20 issues from discussions on the SAAG list about this document. Eric proposed to go through this list in the next couple of weeks and publish proposed resolutions to the IAB mailing list.
- link indications
Bernard is in the process of completing updates and would like to get some review from the transport directorate. He expects a new version to be out next week.
- Multilink subnets (Thaler)
This document is in IAB last call but Dave Thaler hasn’t received any comments yet. Will be kept for the next business meeting in hopes of receiving feedback.
- Internet Transparency (Bernard)
Bernard updated after IETF 67. Would like feedback from the IAB about whether this is the correct mix of topics for this document.
- Encapsulates Draft (Bernard)
Bernard received some last minute comments he needs to look at. The IAB agreed with the assessment that this document probably doesn’t need to document examples from ATM.
- Unwanted traffic report (Loa)
Loa stated that this document is about ready to go, and agreed to publish a -01 version with comments received to now incorporated, then to issue an IAB last call. The goal is to have this published before Prague.
- RAW report (DMM)
Dave Meyer has received both good comments and good text. Will revise the current document and
- RFC Editor
- IAB Publication
Leslie has received comments on how to update these and hopes to get a revision done and out to last call very soon.
